Rabbi Eli Schlinger, who was killed in an armed attack in Sydney on
Sunday, had previously visited Israel and met with Israeli soldiers, encouraging them to continue the war of genocide against the Gaza
Strip, an Israeli television channel and an Israeli activist have
revealed.
Schlinger was among 12 people killed and at least 29 others wounded
during an armed attack that took place during Hanukkah celebrations at
Bondi Beach in Sydney, according to Australian authorities. The
Israeli Broadcasting Corporation (Kan) confirmed that Schlinger was an
emissary of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement in Australia.
Israeli activist and journalist Hanoch Daom wrote on Instagram that
Schlinger travelled to Israel following 7 October 2023, where he met
with Israeli soldiers to offer what Daom described as osupport and encouragemento during the ongoing military campaign in Gaza.
IsraelAs Channel 12 later broadcast an image showing Schlinger sitting
among Israeli soldiers atop a military vehicle. The broadcaster did
not clarify where or when the photograph was taken, nor whether it was
inside the Gaza Strip.
SchlingerAs social media accounts show that he used the image of
himself with Israeli soldiers as his profile picture on both Facebook
and Instagram, openly expressing support for the Israeli army.
The Chabad-Lubavitch movement has long rejected Palestinian national
rights and opposes any political settlement that would grant
Palestinians sovereignty over occupied territory.
IsraelAs genocide in Gaza has, for more than two years, resulted in
the killing of over 70,000 Palestinians and the wounding of more than
171,000 others, most of them women and children, according to
Palestinian health authorities and international organisations. The
campaign has triggered widespread international condemnation and
deepened IsraelAs global isolation.
