ASIO reveals Iran behind antisemitic attacks in Australia

Published
Australia's police and intelligence agencies have revealed the Iranian Revolutionary Guard was behind two antisemitic attacks in Australia. Last October a cafe and catering business in Sydney's eastern suburbs was set on fire, and in December the Adass Israel Synagogue in Melbourne was firebombed. The discovery of the network being directed by Iran has led to the expulsion of Iran's Ambassador in Canberra and the removal of Australia's diplomats from Tehran.
