King Charles III was heckled by an Australian senator who accused the visiting U.K. monarch of “genocide.”

Lidia Thorpe, an Aboriginal independent lawmaker for Victoria, interrupted proceedings and approached the stage as Charles concluded his speech at Parliament House in the capital city of Canberra.

“This is not your land, you are not my king!” she said.
