Pro-Palestinian activists have vandalised the United States Consulate and multiple Labor parliamentarians in the Australian state of Victoria.

The phrases “Glory to the Martyrs” and “Free Gaza” were graffitied on the U.S. Consulate General building on St. Kilda Road in Melbourne, accompanied by broken windows.
