Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison on Monday said a fake image that was tweeted by a high-ranking Chinese official was “truly repugnant.” Morrison called a media briefing specifically to condemn the posting of the picture, which shows an Australian soldier holding a knife to the throat of a veiled Afghan child carrying a lamb in her arms. Morrison described the image as being “deeply offensive to every Australian.” He said he had reached out to Twitter and Chinese authorities for the immediate removal of the post.
