Aussies in Israel to protest outside the Australian embassy

Australians and Israelis are set to rally outside the Australian Embassy in Tel Aviv on Friday, protesting what they see as Canberra’s failures to address rising anti-Semitism in the country and policies that have weakened diplomatic ties with Jerusalem. Demonstrators have been directed to bring Australian and Israeli flags to the rally to urge Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and his government to do more to protect the Australian Jewish community amid a rise in violent incidents. Since the start of the Gaza war Australia has seen a wave of anti-Semitic vandalism and arson attacks, including against synagogues. KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with Australian-Israeli Manny Waks.
