Anti-AUKUS protesters rallied against Australia’s military involvement with the United States in the Middle East outside the US Chamber of Commerce on July 4.
Queensland Premier David Crisafulli addressed the lunch on US Independence Day.
The protesters highlighted the government’s complicity in genocide in Gaza and that it has supported the United States and Israeli bombing of Iran.
They demanded an end to AUKUS and Australian involvement in attacks on Gaza and Iran.
