How many Palestinians have been allowed into Australia since 7 October?
From 7 October 2023 to 12 August 2024, Australia has granted 2,922 visas to people from the occupied Palestinian territories.
These people are almost all family members of Australians, says Rasha Abbas, director of Palestine Australia Relief and Action (Para), which assists Palestinians resettling in Australia.
Only an estimated 1,300 Palestinians who had been granted these visas had so far been able to make it to Australia.
