    Please update the post title to match the article headline:

    Police find no evidence of antisemitic ‘gas’ chant at pro-Palestinian Sydney protest

    Since the article also mentions other anti-semetic phrases were employed:

    When asked whether there was evidence of other antisemitic phrases being used at the rally, Lanyon said “certainly”.

    “There is evidence of that, and those are offensive and completely unacceptable,” he said.

    “But I think the major contention has been about the phrase that was chanted, and quite emphatically, our expert has said that it is ‘Where’s the Jews?’”

    I will add this to the sidebar but it is best to stick with the original title as in this case. However, SBS may have changed it throughout the day. Thanks
