  • Israeli Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister Sharren Haskel has accused the Albanese government of "rewarding Hamas" after they split from the United States and Israel at the United Nations.

The article from MSN discusses the Albanese government's decision to diverge from the United States in a UN vote concerning Palestine. This move has sparked controversy, with critics arguing that it rewards Hamas, a group designated as a terrorist organization by several countries including Australia. The vote in question was about granting Palestine additional rights at the UN, which some see as a step towards recognizing Palestinian statehood. The Albanese government's choice to support this resolution is perceived by some as undermining the US-led efforts to isolate Hamas following its recent actions. This decision has led to debates about Australia's foreign policy alignment with traditional allies like the US, especially in the context of the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict. Critics fear this could embolden Hamas and complicate peace negotiations, while supporters argue it's a step towards a two-state solution.
