Melbourne Labor MP Peter Khalil is the most recent parliamentarian to have their office vandalised by pro-Palestinian protesters, who not only sprayed it with red paint but forced “substances” into the building.

Fellow Labor MP Josh Burns’ St Kilda office was damaged in June when vandals smashed the windows and painted the exterior with slogans, but the latest attack marks an escalation.
