Afternoon Headlines: Iran's supreme leader vowed to show “no mercy”, third Australian arrested in Bali over the alleged targeted shooting of two Melbourne men and Optus facing $100 million fine for inappropriate sales practices and misconduct

Deep Dive: Lifeblood has announced a major overhaul of restrictions that prevent gay and bisexual men and transgender women from donating plasma and blood.

It will allow an estimated 600,000 thousand more Australians to help save and change lives through generous donations.

In this episode of The Briefing Natarsha Belling is joined by Member for Sydney MP Alex Greenwich and blood donation advocate Kate Fisher from Milkshakes for Marleigh to unpack these new changes and the difference they will make for millions of Australians.
