Activists demand Gaza ceasefire and no war on Iran

Standing in unity, holding signs and waving flags, activists have gathered to demand an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and to oppose the conflict with Iran. Protesters once again turned out in force for the weekly rally in Melbourne's city centre, calling for the recognition of a Palestinian state and condemning the Israeli government's military response to Hamas' attack on Israel. Braving Sunday's rain, the group marched in a loop, starting from the State Library, chanting and carrying banners and signs that read "Sanction Israel," and "Glory to the Martyrs." The protest came amid continued violence in Gaza, which escalated after Hamas, a designated terrorist organisation, launched an attack on Israel, killing about 1200 people and abducting 250 others in October 2023. In response, Israeli military strikes have killed more than 56,400 Palestinians in the besieged territory, according to figures from the Hamas-run health ministry. Free Palestine Melbourne protests are not only demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza but also calling for an end to the attacks on Iran. Tensions between Iran and Israel recently eased after both sides agreed to a ceasefire, following a 12-day conflict during which the US bombed three of Iran's nuclear facilities. Iran launched missiles at a US military base in Qatar in response. Protesters say they will continue to build strong and vibrant rallies throughout July, aiming to engage a broader demographic and push for change at the parliamentary level in Australia. This includes "Converge on Canberra," a three-day event from July 20 designed to send a clear and urgent message to the federal government. "Now is the time to pressure Labor to end its support and complicity in genocide," organisers said.

‘We are not going to stand for this': Trump lashes out at Israel prosecutors over Netanyahu's corruption trial

US President Donald Trump has lashed out at prosecutors in Israel over Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's corruption trial, saying Washington, having given billions of dollars worth of aid to Israel, was not going to 'stand for this'. Mr Netanyahu was indicted in 2019 in Israel on charges of bribery, fraud and breach of trust - all of which he denies. The trial began in 2020 and involves three criminal cases. 'It is INSANITY doing what the out-of-control prosecutors are doing to Bibi Netanyahu,' Trump said in a Truth Social post, adding that the judicial process was going to interfere with Mr Netanyahu's ability to conduct talks with Palestinian militants Hamas, and with Iran. Mr Trump's second post over the course of a few days defending Mr Netanyahu and calling for the cancellation of the trial went a step further to tie Israel's legal action to US aid. 'The United States of America spends Billions of Dollar (sic) a year, far more than on any other Nation, protecting and supporting Israel. We are not going to stand for this,' Trump said. 'We are not going to stand for this. We just had a Great Victory with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu at the helm — And this greatly tarnishes our Victory. LET BIBI GO, HE'S GOT A BIG JOB TO DO!' Mr Netanyahu 'right now' was in the process of negotiating a deal with Hamas, Trump said, without giving further details. On Friday US time, the Republican president told reporters he believes a ceasefire is close. Hamas has said it is willing to free remaining hostages in Gaza under any deal to end the war, while Israel says it can only end if Hamas is disarmed and dismantled. Hamas refuses to lay down its arms. Interest in resolving the Gaza conflict has heightened in the wake of the US and Israeli bombing of Iran's nuclear facilities. A ceasefire to the 12-day Israel-Iran conflict went into effect early this week.
