Early this morning, at Israel's Ben Gurion Airport, I received my friends Boris Johnson, the former Prime Minister of Great Britain and Scott Morrison, the former Prime Minister of Australia - both true friends of Israel.
During the day we will visit Israel's Southern communities and will meet with our heroic IDF soldiers.
On behalf of all the people of Israel, we thank you for your steadfast support.

More than 1300 Israelis have been confirmed murdered since Saturday. I have been unable to attend the funerals of two members of my own family. My heart breaks for all those who are burying loved ones, and those across the world who cannot comfort their grieving relatives in Israel.

Early this morning I meet with Prime Minister @AlboMP to share my appreciation for Australia’s resolute support during Israel’s darkest days.

A big turnout this morning to hear about the benefits of the new Australia Israel tax treaty. The agreement will reduce withholding tax rates; reduce potential double taxation; and provide greater certainty for investors. 🇦🇺👍🏼🇮🇱

Our Government is committed to keeping every Australian safe. No one should have to fear for their safety. That’s why today we’ve announced we’re extending the Safer Communities Fund following the terrible terrorist attack in New Zealand.
