‘Something is wrong': Australian govt blasted for ‘absurd' ban of Israeli tech speaker
UN Watch Executive Director Hillel Neuer says 'something is wrong' in Australia after tech entrepreneur Hillel Fuld was controversially banned from the country. Israeli influencer Hillel Fuld has broken his silence after having his visa cancelled by the Albanese government, hitting out at the "ridiculous excuse" Labor used to deny him entry to Australia. Mr Fuld's visa was quietly cancelled by the Department of Home Affairs last week, shortly before he was due to arrive in the country to take part in fundraising events hosted by Magen David Adom Australia - an offshoot of Israel's national emergency medical and blood service.

Anti-Israel propaganda leads to murder of Israeli couple in Washington DC
UN Watch Executive Director Hillel Neuer says demonisation of Israel is 'fanning the flames of hate' after two Israelis were murdered in Washington, DC. 'Today we had a stark reminder of where this kind of demonisation and fanning the flames of hate leads to in Washington, DC,' Mr Neuer told Sky News host Chris Kenny. 'Two innocent people, Israeli staffers, a couple, that were about to get married … were attending a Jewish diplomacy event … a murderer came and went up to them in close range and shot them.'

Media is spreading ‘terrible lies' designed to demonise Israel
UN Watch Executive Director Hillel Neuer says the media is spreading lies about the Israel-Palestine war. 'In October 2023 … this terrible lie went out: Israel bombs hospital in Gaza, kills 500 people – and everything was a lie,' Mr Neuer told Sky News host Chris Kenny. 'There seems to be a demand in the world, there seems to be a space reserved on the front page, or in the top story on TV news … Israel kills innocents, and, you know, here are wounded, bloody people about to die.'
