A white supremacist rally in Corowa, New South Wales, drew about 50 masked individuals, prompting local leaders to reaffirm the town's commitment to being a safe multicultural community. Police dispersed the group but made no arrests. Community leaders and politicians condemned the rally, calling it "abhorrent." They emphasized that such behavior has no place in Corowa or Australia. Local officials are focused on ensuring safety and respect in the community. Calls have emerged for New South Wales to ban Nazi salutes and symbols, following similar laws in Victoria. Leaders argue that these actions are not free speech and should not be tolerated in any community.
