Former Israeli justice minister denied entry into Australia: Report

Former Israeli Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked was barred from entering Australia, where she was supposed to address a conference organised by the Australia/Israel and Jewish Affairs Council, The Australian reports.

The outlet says Shaked was denied entry because she might "incite discord", stating that the act is used to prevent the entry of people who might "vilify a segment of the Australian community, or incite discord in the Australian community or in a segment of that community".
