Israeli President Isaac Herzog received two very different receptions in Australia on Monday – a warm welcome by a government determined to show solidarity with its grieving Jewish community, and mass protests by activists who consider him a war criminal.

New South Wales Premier Chris Minns and NSW Police are addressing the media after violent anti-Israel protests broke out in Sydney with activists chanting globalise the intifada.

During the visit, Mr Herzog will meet with Anthony Albanese, Jewish leaders and victims and their families of the Bondi Beach terror attack.

As U.S.-Iran nuclear diplomacy continues, Israel warns that limiting talks to atomic program while ignoring ballistic missiles leaves Jerusalem "exposed."

Tensions spike as Tehran hardens its nuclear red lines ahead of renewed high-stakes talks with Washington.

According to Israeli defense officials, Iran’s expanding missile production and improved accuracy now pose an existential threat, capable of reaching deep inside Israeli territory with little warning.
