Pro-Palestine protesters who marched on the Sydney Opera House chanting anti-Israel and anti-Jewish rhetoric have been condemned by the NSW premier who says it was deplorable. The iconic venue was lit up in the blue and white of the Israeli flag on Monday night in solidarity with the Jewish community after Islamist group Hamas attacked Israeli towns on Saturday.
Jewish community warned to stay away from pro-Palestinian protest. The group sent fighters across the border into Israel and fired thousands of rockets in an unprecedented attack on Saturday. At least 900 people have reportedly been killed in Israel and more than 600 have been killed in Gaza. Hamas militants have taken Israelis hostage, with Reuters reporting the movement, which controls Gaza in the Palestine territories, plans to execute captives if civilian houses are bombed.
