MC-120562Mobs don't attack ghasts
Unlike other mobs, (for example, when skeleton shots zombie, the zombie starts to attack the skeleton) when Ghast hits mob, the mob won't attack it.

Mobs don't attack ghasts

Note: this might be working as intended as per MC-120562.
I don't think this is intended. If you read the comment that is linked in MC-120562 as the rationale for the resolution, it basically implies "because ghasts don't retaliate against other mobs, mobs shouldn't be aggressive towards ghasts", however, with that logic wolves shouldn't attack sheep because the sheep won't retaliate.
Further, I have noticed that this seems to be per-world. In certain worlds, mobs will be aggresive towards ghasts, whereas in others they will not. In my creative world I made a ghast farm that used iron golems to kill the ghasts and it worked perfectly fine, but in my survival world they will not attack the ghasts no matter what I do.
Definitely affects 1.20.1.
Works as intended, see
MC-83174and this comment from [Mojang] Jeb (Jens Bergensten).
