Australia announces tougher hate speech laws after Bondi terror attack

Australia plans to strengthen hate speech laws following the Bondi Beach terror attack, which left 15 dead and 40 injured. New measures will impose harsher penalties for promoting violence, create a hate speech offense for religious preachers, and allow for the cancellation of visas for those spreading hate. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese expressed a need for stronger action against anti-Semitism in the wake of the attack. "It is clear we need to do more to combat this evil scourge," he stated. Families of victims mourn the loss, as investigations into the incident continue, including the actions of hate preachers.
