Resistance members set up an 'Israeli military checkpoint' outside Flinders Street train station to call on the state government to not renew Connex's contract to run Melbourne's train system.

Connex is part of a consortium building a train system in Jerusalem, which connects illegal settlements in the West Bank with Israeli-controlled parts of western Jerusalem.

The train line can only be used by Jewish passengers, who can travel between Israel and the illegal settlements in the Palestinian territories.
