Juliet Lamont is attending Canberra Magistrates Court today, Wednesday 8 July 2026, at  9.30am for Protest Against Arming Israel

She is being represented by Bernard Collaery.
 
The community action arose from objections to the export of Australian made lethal materiel to Israel during a genocide. It is claimed that such exports contravene international law.

Abuse by Israel of Ms Lamont and other Australians is now the subject of an AFP enquiry.
