Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has issued his strongest condemnation yet of Israel's actions in Gaza, describing the humanitarian situation as 'beyond the world's worst fears.' Albanese accused Israel of denying aid and causing mass starvation among civilians, including children, and called these actions 'completely indefensible.' He demanded that Israel immediately comply with international law and allow unrestricted humanitarian access.

Despite the strong rhetoric, the government has stopped short of formally recognizing a Palestinian state.
