Protesters set Old Parliament House in Australia on fire, 2021

Australia’s previous parliament working in the capital Canberra was set alight on Thursday by nonconformists during a showing for Aboriginal sway, police said.

Nobody sustained injuries in the fire, which overwhelmed the Parliament House’s front entryways before the fire was put out.

It follows a fortnight of dissent movement at the site, police said.
