Australia, Penny Wong outraged by the closing of the investigation into the death of Zomi Frankcom

Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong said she was "outraged" by Israel's decision to drop the criminal investigation into the deaths of Australian aid worker Zomi Frankcom and her colleagues in Gaza.

“I will summon the Israeli ambassador to Australia, Hillel Newman, and have asked the Australian ambassador to Israel to communicate our position directly to Israel while the Australian government considers its next steps,” he said in a statement.
