Greens call on federal government to block US execution live stream in Australia
In short:
The Greens want the federal government to "take whatever action is necessary" to prevent the live streaming of a firing squad execution in the United States from being available to watch in Australia.
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said he would make sure the public could watch the December 3 execution of Nidal Malik Hasan.
What's next?
US Vice President JD Vance has cast doubt over whether the execution would actually be live streamed, but Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young says the government still needs to provide assurance it will not be shown in Australia.
