- Fears doctors criticising Israel may be silenced as health watchdog adopts contested antisemitism definition

The move is supported by the nation’s peak Jewish body but criticized by the Australia Palestine Advocacy Network, which warns it may silence health professionals from addressing Israel’s human rights record.
