Australian PM
Anthony Albanese
urged activists on both sides of the Israel-Palestinian debate to "turn the heat down" after the
US consulate in Sydney
was vandalised Monday. Surveillance video showed a person wearing a dark hoodie using a small sledgehammer to smash nine holes in the reinforced glass windows of the building, the police said. Two inverted red triangles, seen by some as a symbol of Palestinian resistance but by others as supporting Hamas, were also painted.
