Cassandra’s letter of cancellation, issued by the Department of Home Affairs, states: “As part of the visa application process, you were required to meet section 600.211 which states the visa applicant genuinely intends to stay temporarily in Australia.
“The delegate considered the situation in your home country, including the current conflict, the internal displacement of persons and the difficult circumstances facing ordinary citizens there.
“The delegate considered you never intended a genuine stay temporarily in Australia and therefore the visa was granted based on circumstances that never existed.”
A spokesman for Home Affairs Minister Clare O’Neil said the government could not comment on individual cases.
“The Australian government recognises that this is an incredibly distressing time for Australians with extended family members in Gaza,” the spokesman said. “All visa applicants undergo security checks and are subject to ongoing security assessments. The Australian government reserves the right to cancel any issued visas if circumstances change.”

"We decided not to let you in because the chance you won't leave Australia seems pretty high given the fact that everything is being turned to rubble where you're from. As such, we're sending you back to where you're from. Better rubble for thee than rabble for me! G'day!"

People constantly trying to shut the door behind them, and it’s made worse by pure lies about work. 99.99•% of immigrants work hard af and pay taxes, unlike the top 0.1%
