Foreign Minister Julie Bishop has condemned the overnight firebomb attack on a mosque in Perth and said federal police will investigate motives for the attack.
Ms Bishop sidestepped questions about whether the attack could be linked to recent government rhetoric around border security and asylum seekers in the lead up to the federal election.
"The Australian government condemns any form of violence and we will work exceedingly hard to ensure Australians are kept safe," Ms Bishop told reporters in Perth on Wednesday.
