Description
The front pages of some of Australia's major newspapers carry articles and headlines after a landmark defamation ruling in favour of The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and The Canberra Times over their reporting on allegations of war crimes committed by one of the country's most decorated soldiers. Ben Roberts-Smith, a former member of Australia's elite Special Air Service Regiment, sued the three newspapers for 2018 reports that alleged he was involved in the murders of unarmed prisoners in Afghanistan.
