Minister of Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism Amichai Chikli visited the site of a massacre at a Sydney beach, expressing deep concern over the event and the broader atmosphere in Australia. In an interview, Chikli described the attack as distressing but unsurprising, citing what he perceives as a hostile environment toward Jews in the country. He criticized the Australian government for its lack of response to calls for action against antisemitism and noted that many related incidents have not been adequately addressed or punished.
