The vice chancellor of one of Australia’s top universities has denied an incident in which a pro-Palestinian student allegedly performed the Nazi salute last year.

The incident took place during an online meeting of the Australian National University’s (ANU) student union in May 2024, at the height of pro-Palestinian protests across universities in Australia and other Western countries.
