‘Terrorist sympathiser’ allegedly helping Palestinians settle into Australia

Sky News host Sharri Markson has exposed a “terrorist sympathiser” allegedly helping Palestinians settle in Australia amid the war between Israel and Gaza. Australia has granted visas to 860 Palestinians fleeing the conflict in the Middle East. The Opposition has expressed concern over the government’s ability to ensure people who have terror affiliations are not allowed into Australia. Laura Allam claimed to be helping the Palestinians arrive in Australia through her non-government organisation AJF Org. Ms Markson exposed “extremist content” posted on Ms Allam’s social media accounts, including a comment about plans to “avenge the martyrs in Jenin and Gaza.“ “It is a jihad of martyrdom or victory,” Ms Allam wrote on her Instagram post. Foreign Minister Penny Wong was approached for a comment on the issue, with a spokesperson saying: “The Australian Government does not engage any NGOs in providing consular assistance to individuals seeking to leave Gaza”.
