Overview
- Video recorded on campus shows a female staff member confronting Jewish students and a Jewish academic at an AUJS Sukkot stall and shouting abuse before security moved her on.
- In the clip she calls Zionists “the lowest form of rubbish,” labels them “baby killers,” denies Jews are a Semitic people, and identifies herself as an “Indigenous Palestinian.”
- The university said the conduct was “utterly unacceptable,” suspended the staff member pending disciplinary assessment, and issued an apology to those affected.
- NSW Police said they are aware of the footage and that inquiries are ongoing.
- Student organizers said the stall was a non‑political religious event with no Israeli flags, noted they had paid for security, and community leaders condemned the incident as antisemitism masked as anti‑Zionism.
