Second Sydney Nurse Charged Over Antisemitic Video and Drug Possession

Ahmed Rashid Nadir and Sarah Abu Lebdeh face charges after a video allegedly showed threats against Israeli patients at Bankstown Hospital.

Ahmed Rashid Nadir, 27, was arrested and charged with using a carriage service to menace, harass, or offend, and possessing a prohibited drug.
The video, posted by Israeli influencer Max Veifer, allegedly shows Nadir and colleague Sarah Abu Lebdeh making threats against Israeli patients.
Abu Lebdeh, charged last week, allegedly stated she would refuse to treat Israeli patients and threatened their lives.
Both nurses have been suspended from practicing nationwide by the Australian health practitioner watchdog and the NSW Nursing and Midwifery Council.
Strike Force Pearl, formed to address antisemitic incidents, has now made 15 arrests and laid 78 charges since its establishment.
