Penny Wong: “The degrading treatment by Israeli authorities shown in publicly available footage is condemned.”

Israel’s actions are extinguishing the possibility of a two-state solution.

We have taken action that Prime Minister (Benjamin) Netanyahu’s government has made very clear that they are more than displeased with, but we have done so because this is the right thing to do.

Minister Wong has condemned the actions of Israeli authorities and the behaviour of Israeli minister Ben-Gvir who we have already sanctioned.

We call on the Palestinian Authority to ensure elections take place without delay.
