The former prime ministers will meet Israel’s President Isaac Herzog and visit some of the massacre sites in southern Israel.
Former prime minister Scott Morrison has landed in Israel, in the first visit to the Jewish state by an Australian politician since Hamas crossed the border from Gaza and slaughtered more than 1400 Israeli citizens on October 7.
Former Australian prime minister Scott Morrison and former UK prime minister Boris Johnson meet the chairman of World Likud Danny Denon after arriving in Israel on Sunday., more than three weeks after the war began, and he has not visited the Jewish state.Morrison said he was “thankful for the opportunity to join former prime minister Johnson to come to Israel as a demonstration of solidarity with the people and State of Israel and the Jewish community throughout the world.
The former prime ministers will reportedly meet Israeli President Isaac Herzog and family members of hostages abducted by Hamas. There are also plans to visit Israeli villages in the south where civilians were slaughtered when Gazan fighters broke into their homes.
“It is absolutely appalling that a member of parliament in this country could behave in this way, let alone the leader of a prominent political party. Mr Bandt should immediately dissociate himself from this event and organisation. Furthermore, he should make a full and unequivocal apology not only to the Jewish community, but to all Australians.
