Fri, 25 Sep 2026 06:37:17 +0000

Addressing the UN General Assembly in New York on Thursday, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Australia would continue to oppose illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank while rejecting any future role for Hamas in Palestine. “We will continue to speak out against actions that damage the prospect of peace, including illegal settlements in the West Bank,” he said, adding that Canberra would also “continue to oppose any role for the terrorists of Hamas in Palestine’s future”. Turning to Iran, Albanese said the conflict had taken “a severe toll on the Middle East” and caused a “devastating impact on the global economy”. Australia, he said, was calling for a ceasefire, the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and the restoration of freedom of navigation and trade. He also urged Iran to halt “indiscriminate attacks” across the region and abandon any efforts to obtain nuclear weapons.
