A woman in Sydney Harbour left with 'severe' injuries after a suspected shark attack. Find out more about this shocking incident in Sydney!

A woman in Sydney's eastern suburbs was left with 'severe' injuries after being attacked by a shark at a private wharf near Billyard Avenue. The incident, which occurred just before 8pm, saw emergency services rushing to the scene to assist the victim, who was swimming in Elizabeth Bay when attacked. The woman suffered significant injuries to her leg, with reports suggesting she may have lost part of it due to the shark bite. The alarming incident highlights the dangers lurking in Sydney's waters, especially for swimmers and beachgoers.

In a different part of Sydney's news, the city's rental crisis has reached a new peak, with a record low in available rental stock making it challenging for renters. Despite Sydney being a vibrant and livable city, the shortage of rental accommodation is putting pressure on residents. This issue adds to the already high cost of living in Sydney, making it tough for many to find affordable housing.

On a brighter note, Indigenous school students recently had the opportunity to explore their futures at a university near Sydney. Over 100 students experienced university life and took part in the Gadalung program, providing them with insights into higher education and potential career paths.

In other news, the Sydney duo injecting more queer representation into the comedy scene is making waves with a sponsorship from the City of Sydney. Their efforts to bring diverse performers to Mardi Gras on Oxford Street are adding a fresh and inclusive vibe to the comedy scene.
