A Sydney protester, Sarah Mouhanna, is challenging a terrorism-related charge for displaying a Hezbollah flag at a pro-Palestine rally—just as Australia’s new protest laws, carrying up to 12 months in jail, took effect. The case, one of the first to test these laws in court, sparked constitutional concerns prompting a High Court referral debate, but the magistrate ultimately allowed it to proceed locally. CCTV footage allegedly shows her with the flag, though she insists she’s innocent and is supported by her family. The outcome could reshape how protest symbols and terrorism designations intersect in Australian law.
