Labor1 has lost its election-winning lead with the latest Newspoll showing the ALP and the Coalition2 50-50. A Nielsen poll published at the weekend showed the Coalition ahead on the two-party preferred basis. Today's poll shows primary support for Tony Abbott's Coalition is up 2 per cent.

Police will soon resume searching for a six-year-old girl missing from her home in western Sydney. Kiesha Abrahams' mother said she put her daughter to bed on Saturday night. But yesterday morning, she was gone from her Hebersham home. Now, it's unclear whether she wandered off or was taken.

The number of people killed by flooding in Pakistan is now more than 1000. Landslides3 have washed away whole villages, stranding4 thousands of people in the country's northwest. More heavy rain is forecast in the next 24 hours.

The Netherlands has ended its four-year military involvement in Afghanistan. Coalition troops including Australian soldiers will take over operations in Uruzgan province. NATO wanted the Netherlands to extend its mission, but the request triggered a political row which brought down the country's government in February.

And stolen Australian weapons are repeatedly being discovered among Taliban stockpiles. That's according to military documents posted on Wikileaks. Fairfax newspaper said last December, a NATO patrol found Australian equipment among Taliban weapons used to make roadside bombs. The paper says it raises fears that Afghan troops trained by Australian soldiers have been pilfering5 military supplies.
