At the Meadow Heights Mosque in Melbourne, Australia, 30 Australian women embraced Islam after being moved by the resilience of Gazans in the face of Israeli massacres. They felt connected to Islam through their sympathy for the Palestinian people and eventually decided to convert.

In Australia, the number of Islamophobic verbal abuse, intimidation, threats, violence and physical violence has increased 39-fold since October 7. There are also threats against non-Muslim citizens who support Palestinian independence.

The Australian government has refused to issue a visa to Aelet Shaked, who served as Israel's Minister of Justice in 2015-2019 and Interior Minister in 2021-2022. It was cited as the reason his visit would "offend" parts of Australian society and cause "discord" within the community.
