‘Utterly inexcusable’: Penny Wong doubles down on death of Australian aid worker

Foreign Affairs Minister Penny Wong has heaped criticism on Israel after the “utterly inexcusable” deaths of seven aid workers in an airstrike including Australian Zomi Frankcom. “Clear practical action is needed to ensure this tragedy is never repeated,” Ms Wong told a media conference on Saturday afternoon. Ms Wong detailed a letter both she and Defence Minister Richard Marles had sent to Israel demanding “full accountability”. “We acknowledge, since we sent the letter, Israel has now confirmed that two individuals involved in this incident have been stood down,” she said. “We reiterate that appropriate action must be taken against the individuals.”
