A second nurse in Australia has been charged after allegedly making antisemitic threats during an online video conversation with an Israeli influencer, according to local authorities.
Israeli content creator Max Veifer shared a video on social media last month in which he reportedly conversed with a male and a female nurse from a hospital in Sydney, during which they made antisemitic comments.
Ahmad Rashad Nadir, a 27-year-old male nurse, was arrested on Tuesday and charged with using a carriage service to menace or harass, along with a separate charge of possessing illegal drugs, as stated by the police. He has been granted bail and is set to appear in court in Sydney on March 19.
The previous week, another nurse from the same southwest Sydney hospital, 26-year-old Sarah Abu Lebdeh, was charged with three offenses, including using a carriage service to threaten to kill. She too is scheduled to appear in court on March 19.
New South Wales Police Commissioner Karen Webb remarked, “Detectives have overcome many challenges — including huge public expectation — to put these individuals before the court.”
Both nurses were dismissed from their positions in February after the video surfaced.
