Labor MP challenges Marles over Israeli government support – as it happened

An Australian Labor MP challenged Defense Minister Richard Marles over the party's support for Israel's government during a closed-door caucus meeting, while the day's news included multiple other stories: NT police declined to charge off-duty officers in an Indigenous man's death, Islamic State-linked women and children arrived in Australia, David Pocock criticized BHP's climate policy stance, arrests were made in a shooter case, Jewish Australians reported increased harassment, and Victorian buildings were lit for AFL great Neale Daniher.
