QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator FARUQI (New South Wales—Deputy Leader of the Australian Greens) (15:07): Minister, the Israeli ambassador has the audacity to say that any loss of innocent life is a tragedy. According to the UN figures released yesterday, 186 aid workers were killed in Gaza last year. The ambassador has attempted to gaslight World Central Kitchen.

Do you accept the ambassador's account that Zomi and her colleagues were somehow responsible for their own deaths, or do you believe that the ambassador is lying?
