Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has joined New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in calling for a sustainable ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas conflict.
In a joint statement, the three leaders said they wanted to resume a “pause” in the fighting and supported “urgent international efforts towards a sustainable ceasefire”.
Meanwhile, at the United Nations, Australia has voted with an overwhelming majority of countries for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire. The United States was among a small minority of nations voting against. Israel’s ambassador to Australia condemned the Australian vote.
