The Palestinian representative in Canberra has taken aim at the federal and state governments for a lack of solidarity with civilians in Gaza, as Israel continues its deadly bombardment and siege. Israeli airstrikes have killed more than 3700 people in Gaza, including 1000 children, while a tightened Israeli blockade for more than a week has meant Gazans are running out of food, water, medical supplies and have no access to electricity.
Palestinian representative takes aim at what he says is a lack of solidarity with civilians caught in Gaza. The attacks came after at least 1400 people in Israel were killed, 3800 injured and about 200 taken hostage in the October 7 Hamas attacks that Israel described as being the worst day in its history.
