Statement: Hamas Attacks on October 7th

Meretz Australia stands in solidarity with the people of Israel and grieves the continuing and tragic loss of life. Indiscriminate attacks on civilians are inexcusable, and we condemn such actions taken by Hamas during their invasion of Israel.  

As steadfast supporters of peace in the region, we are mindful that this conflict will have far reaching implications for many in the region. But we unequivocally support Israel and its right to defend itself.
