Australian Opposition leader Peter Dutton has criticised the decision of some Greens and Independent Teal MPs to condemn Israel’s actions during war and decried support for Hamas in Australia.

It comes after Prime Minister Anthony Albanese moved a motion on Monday that urged the government to stand with Israel, called for the release of Israeli hostages, and denounced the assault by the terrorist group.
