澳大利亚激进人士在堪培拉以色列大使馆前举行抗议,要求驱逐以色列大使希勒尔·纽曼。1抗议活动针对以色列国防军的一项决定——不对下令空袭的军官提起诉讼,该空袭于2024年4月杀死了澳大利亚援助工作者佐米·弗兰克科姆及其六名同事。1
以色列大使纽曼上月拒绝向弗兰克科姆家族道歉,称必须尊重以色列的调查结果。1参与空袭的以色列国防军预备役上校诺奇·门德尔表示他会"完全相同地"再做一次,并称被杀害的世界中央厨房工作人员"不是无辜的"。1
绿党参议员梅赫林·法鲁基和独立参议员莉迪亚·索普等人出席了抗议。1法鲁基称联邦政府为"懦夫",因其未声明如何继续追究弗兰克科姆之死的责任。1索普带着一盒纸条,上面写有2万名被以色列杀死的巴勒斯坦儿童的名字。1
外交部长彭尼·黄上月称她对以色列的决定"感到愤怒",并提出无人机空袭发生在人道主义火力管制区的疑问。1
Demonstrators gathered outside the Israeli embassy in Canberra to protest Israel's decision not to prosecute the military officer who ordered an airstrike that killed Australian aid worker Zomi Frankcom and six colleagues in April 2024.1 The Israeli Defense Forces' determination to close the case without criminal charges prompted calls for the expulsion of Israeli Ambassador Hillel Newman, who refused to apologize to the Frankcom family last month, stating that Israel's investigative findings must be respected.1
Among those attending the demonstration were Greens Senator Mehreen Faruqi and independent Senator Lydia Thorpe, who urged the Australian government to pursue accountability.1 Faruqi criticized the federal government as "cowards" for failing to articulate how it would continue seeking justice for Frankcom's death.1 Thorpe brought a box containing the names of approximately 20,000 Palestinian children killed by Israel.1
Israeli Air Force Reserve Colonel Nochi Mendel, who participated in the strike, stated he would conduct the operation "exactly the same way" again and characterized the World Central Kitchen workers who were killed as "not innocent."1 Foreign Minister Penny Wong previously expressed anger at Israel's decision and questioned whether the drone strike occurred in a designated humanitarian ceasefire zone.1
