Australia has admonished Israel over civilian deaths in northern Gaza as the international community demands more humanitarian aid for the besieged strip.

While Australia doesn't have the same lever to pull - because it doesn't directly export weapons to Israel - Senator Wong has asked Australian officials to convey the federal government's concerns directly to their Israeli counterparts.
