Police intervene outside hearings of Australia’s Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion after a man wearing a shirt resembling a swastika is seen near the venue. Multiple outlets report the man is ordered to move on outside the building where the commission’s third day of hearings is taking place, as Jewish Australians share lived experiences during the proceedings.
Some reporting also indicates the man is arrested in connection with the incident, rather than remaining only subject to an order to leave the area. The coverage focuses on the response by police to the presence of the swastika-like shirt outside the hearing site.
The Royal Commission is holding hearings in public, and the incident occurs alongside the ongoing testimony. None of the provided accounts describe additional details about charges or the man’s identity, and the reporting does not attribute any further intent beyond the clothing resemblance to a swastika.
