  • Anthony Albanese announced a new taskforce to tackle antisemitism, but the US-based Jewish human rights organisation still issued a warning.

The article from The Sydney Morning Herald discusses a travel warning issued by the Australian Jewish Association (AJA) advising Jewish Australians to reconsider travel to certain countries due to heightened anti-Semitism. The warning comes in light of recent global events, including the Israel-Hamas conflict, which has led to increased hostility towards Jewish communities worldwide. The AJA highlighted specific countries where the risk is considered higher, including parts of Europe, the Middle East, and some regions in Asia. The association recommends that Jewish travelers remain vigilant, avoid public displays of their faith, and consider the political climate of their travel destinations. This advisory reflects growing concerns over safety and security for Jewish individuals amidst rising anti-Semitic incidents globally.
