Good afternoon. The foreign affairs minister, Penny Wong, has been heckled by pro-Palestine advocates as she gave a speech warning that “disregard for international humanitarian law is increasing”.
During an address at the University of Tasmania on Tuesday night, a person in the audience could be heard shouting: “What we need right now is leaders that have the backbone – that are willing to do something that isn’t just talk.” Another person interjected: “You’ve had chances at a national and international level to change what is happening in Lebanon, in Palestine … there’s blood on your hands.”
