MP Peter Khalil's Office Vandalized in Melbourne

Labor MP Peter Khalil's office in Melbourne was vandalized with graffiti linked to Hamas, including an inverted red triangle and the slogan 'glory to the martyrs.' Victoria Police are investigating the incident, which involved the spraying of paint and the pumping of an unknown liquid through a drilled hole in the door. Khalil described the stench from the substance as overwhelming, prompting a response from a hazmat team due to concerns about toxicity. The attack comes amid rising tensions and vandalism incidents against politicians related to the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Coalition spokesman James Paterson condemned the act, emphasizing that such intimidation is unacceptable. Khalil reiterated his support for peaceful protest but condemned the escalation to harmful actions.
