<h2>What was Arsen doing in Australia?</h2><p>Arsen Ostrovsky reached Australia just a couple of weeks ahead of the terror attack, to take over his new role as head of the Australia-Israel &amp; Jewish Affairs Council Sydney office. He had reportedly lived in Israel for 13 years and had reportedly survived the October 7 Hamas terror attack.&nbsp;</p><p>“I was here with my family, it was a Hanukkah celebration, there were hundreds of people, there were children, there were elderly people, families enjoying themselves", he said while talking to Australian TV channel News 9.</p><p>Arsen had reached Australia in late November and posted pictures of “F**k Zionism” Graffiti and foretold that something big was going to happen. Arsen Ostrovsky had been a long supporter of the IDF and its massacre of the Palestinian people. He mocked Greta Thunberg as a Jihadi and urged that Palestinians deserve to die.&nbsp;</p><p>He reportedly escaped death as a bullet just skimmed past his head, and the most reasonable, sane response he had was to take a selfie.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
