Plan to combat antisemitism released this week

This week, the Federal government and special envoy Jillian Segal delivered a plan to combat antisemitism.

It comes after several instances of vandalism against synagogues and members of the Jewish community being harassed and attacked.

Ms Segal says there’s a 300 per cent increase of threats and violence against Jewish Australians, but the plan is not about special treatment for one community.
