Penny Wong: “My view is that you should believe, and I believe, women who come forward with these assertions.”

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

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.

Those who seek to divide us for clicks and votes should know that they make us weaker at home and more vulnerable in the world.

This is despite Israel Defense Forces admissions that the IDF strikes on Zomi and her colleagues' vehicles were the result of serious failures to follow IDF procedures, mistaken identification and errors in decision-making.
