Four foreign aid workers and Palestinian translator killed in Israeli strike, Gaza officials say (Guardian, 2024-04-02)
———
“Australian prime minister Anthony Albanese confirmed an Australian national was among those killed while doing ‘extraordinarily important work’, naming her as Zomi Frankcom.”
“Albanese said on Tuesday the government would call in the Israeli ambassador over an incident that was ‘beyond any reasonable circumstances’, adding: ‘Australia expects full accountability for the deaths of aid workers, which is completely unacceptable.’”
@adachika192@palestine If #Albanese thinks it "unacceptable" for #Israel to murder an Australian aid worker, perhaps he could withdraw Australia's unstinting support for the #zionist occupation of #Palestine, which is the root cause of all these problems. #auspol
#Australia / PM referred to International Criminal Court accused of complicity in genocide
A team of Australian lawyers from #Birchgrove Legal has filed a 92-page document with the International Criminal Court (#ICC) accusing Australian Prime Minister Anthony #Albanese of being an accessory to genocide in #Gaza
The document, endorsed by over 100 Australian lawyers and barristers, outlines several actions by Albanese and other officials that allegedly constitute complicity, including:
Freezing aid funding to UNRWA in Gaza
Providing military aid and approving defense exports to Israel
Deploying Australian military to the region without disclosing details
Allowing Australians to join the Israeli military
Providing political support for Israel's actions in Gaza
