    Focus on facts and what people do, not what people say.

    In 2015, Dutton as immigration minister committed to resettling an additional 12,000 refugees from Syria and Iraq as a result of Australia's participation in war in the Middle East, the largest Muslim intake in Australian history. As of 2021, over 18,000 Syrian refugees had been resettled in Australia due to conflict in Syria.

    For conflict in Gaza, by Nov 2023, Australia had granted around 1800 visas to Israeli citizens and 860 to Palestinians (media 23 Nov 2023). By February 2024, just over 330 Palestinian refugees had arrived in Australia on visitor visas.
