Australian police reported incidents of antisemitic graffiti in the cities of Sydney and Perth, alarming the country's Jewish community. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has condemned antisemitism and established a special task force to target antisemitic crime. In addition to the vandalism in Sydney, a home in Perth was similarly targeted with anti-Jewish graffiti and a swastika. Australia has seen a surge in antisemitic actions since the Hamas terror group's attack on Israel in 2023, with the number of anti-Jewish incidents quadrupling in the year after the assault.
