First Nations leaders have urged governments to take stronger action in response to the alleged attack at an Invasion Day rally in Perth on Monday. Social Justice Commissioner Katie Kiss says failing to do so "sends a message that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people do not matter".

The homemade explosive thrown into a crowd on #InvasionDay has been described by police as “designed to explode” with “mass casualty” potential.
If that’s not terrorism, we need to re-write the dictionary.
