SocietyCourt case brought by Zionist federation against journalist Mary Kostakidis ends ‘by consent’

Federal court proceedings brought by the Zionist Federation of Australia against journalist Mary Kostakidis have been discontinued by agreement, with no order as to costs. The federation had alleged that two X posts sharing a Hassan Nasrallah speech breached the Racial Discrimination Act. Kostakidis called the outcome a victory for political expression and press freedom, while the federation said its objectives had been substantially met after her earlier public apology.
