Here's what you need to know today.
Train disruptions continue
Sydney commuters are facing further delays across metro services today as industrial action continues to cause chaos.
Sydney Trains chief executive Matt Longland told Nine Radio there are "unpredictable cancellations" and gaps in services for up to 25 minutes, mainly on the T2, T3 and T8 lines.
He told commuters to expect delays throughout the day, particularly on the inner west line.
"So, every day we’re seeing the same sorts of issues. Unpredictable cancellations for services and gaps in frequency which means longer journey times and less reliability for customers which is frustrating," he said.
Sydney Trains are working to restore the frequency of services.
The ABC has contacted the rail union for comment.
Largest Australian ice haul
NSW Police have made what they say is the largest-ever seizure of methylamphetamine at the Australian border.
Last month officers found 748 kilograms of the drug concealed within marble stone which arrived at Port Botany.
Officers have since found a further 1,800kg with an estimated potential street value of more than $1.6 billion.
Three men, aged 24, 26 and 34, have been charged and remain before the courts.
Blacktown MP calls for more hospital staff
A Western Sydney MP is calling for more doctors, nurses and support staff to be employed at Blacktown Hospital after the death of a young woman.
Dua Ali, 21, died in February, less than two days after being diagnosed with food poisoning at the hospital.
Her death is now under investigation and the NSW Shadow Health Minister has written to the Health Care Complaints Commission about her case.
Blacktown MP Stephen Bali said the hospital lacked necessary resources.
"It's great to have a $700 million shiny new hospital, but when you go into the hospital you want to be treated," he said.
"We need the doctors, the nurses and the support staff."
Western Sydney Local Health District said in a statement 10,148 full-time-equivalent staff would be recruited to hospitals and health services across NSW over four years.
Millions hidden in vintage Bentley
Three men have been charged with allegedly importing more than $150 million into Port Botany inside a vintage Bentley.
Border force officers were tipped off about the stash, which arrived from Canada on a sea cargo container earlier this month.
More than 160 kilograms of methamphetamine and 30 kilograms of cocaine were found hidden behind the headlights of the car.
Two men, aged 20 and 23, were arrested at a Rooty Hill home yesterday afternoon and charged with multiple drug-related offences.
Another man, aged 25, was arrested during a vehicle stop where he was found with methylamphetamine and $1.1 million.
All three men were refused bail to appear in court later today.
Serving police officer charged in 'dial-a-dealer' bust
A senior constable attached to a specialist NSW Police command has been charged with allegedly directing a "dial-a-dealer" cannabis ring in Sydney's south-west.
The 31-year-old man was arrested at a Carnes Hill home on Thursday morning as detectives raided properties and arrested three other people.
He has been charged with supplying an indictable quantity of a prohibited drug and knowingly directing a criminal group.
His arrest was one of four made by Strike Force Ince officers, who also seized 4.6kg of cannabis, $50,000, vehicles, a stun device, a ballistics vest and clothes.
A strike force had been investigating the supply of cannabis in the city's south-west since March, and during that probe a referral was made to the Professional Standards Command.
The serving police officer was refused bail and was set to appear with two other men, aged 27 and 42, before Bankstown Local Court today.
A woman, 58, was also arrested in the raids and was granted bail to appear at Liverpool Local Court on September 22.
Beehives moved to Griffith
About $80,000 beehives have been moved to the NSW Riverina city of Griffith to help in the pollination of the state's almond crop.
The state government recently eased restrictions on the movement of hives, eight weeks after varroa mite was first detected at the Port of Newcastle.
Agriculture Minister Dugald Saunders said strict protocols, including the establishment of two surveillance sites, were in place to ensure hives were free of the deadly parasite.
