A group of friends celebrating Christmas Day at Uluru came up with a creative way to make the most of heavy rain that fell across parts of the Northern Territory. GoPro footage shows the friends – all pilots who live in central Australia – wakeboarding along roads in Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. Embracing the festive occasion, some of them donned Santa suits for the sport. The ABC reported inclement weather forced the closure of the park on Monday, December 26, due to flooding on the ring road around the rock and hazardous driving conditions.

Kangaroos are known for playful roughhousing and when there’s food involved they’re not afraid to turn it up a notch. Two orphaned joeys, Geoff and Katie, were seen punching, kicking and grappling each other on January 9. The owner at Our Haven Wildlife Shelter, where the two are currently living with 29 other joeys, said the two typically like to “play fight” and are often seen scuffling. When a third kangaroo, named Sam, tried to join the fray the two looked to have gotten bored and stopped altogether. Credit: Facebook/Our Haven Wildlife Shelter via Storyful Less

A top Egyptian court has backed a ruling that blocks the handover of two Red Sea islands to Saudi Arabia. The Egyptian government signed a transfer agreement in April to pass Tiran and Sanafir, in the Gulf of Aqaba, over to Saudi Arabia.

Ahmed el Shazli the Judge of Egyptian Supreme Administrative Court delivered the verdict:” It is the court’s belief that Egypt’s sovereignty on Tiran and Sanafir is indisputable.” The islands are home to Egyptian military personnel and international peacekeepers. The Straits of Tiran is Israel’s only entry point from the Gulf of Aqaba to the Red Sea. The Egyptian government claimed that the islands had never been under Egyptian jurisdiction. #Breaking The High Administrative Court said it was unanimous in rejecting government appeal and that Tiran and Sanafir are Egyptian islands pic.twitter.com/PDHQs87PX3— Identity Magazine (@Identitymageg) January 16, 2017 Al Sisi said the land had always belonged to Saudi Arabia and Egyptian troops were only stationed there at the request of Riyadh.
