Israel’s president Herzog’s Australia visit sparks debate—Zionist Federation of Australia, founded in 1927 by Monash and Brodie, is at the center.
Israeli President Isaac Herzog is scheduled to visit Australia from February 8-12, following the Bondi Beach terror attack that killed 15 people. The trip has prompted protests and criticism over allegations of incitement to genocide and Israel's actions in Gaza, with some groups calling for the visit to be rescinded. The visit aims to support the Jewish community and commemorate victims.
