Explosives-Laden Caravan Linked to Antisemitic Plot Found in Sydney

Two individuals named in a counter-terror warrant face unrelated charges as investigations into antisemitic attacks and a caravan with explosives continue.

• A caravan found in Dural, Sydney, on January 19 contained Powergel explosives capable of a 40-meter blast radius and references to Jewish sites, including a synagogue.
• Scott Marshall and Tammie Farrugia were named in a counter-terror warrant but have not been charged in relation to the explosives-laden caravan.
• Marshall is in custody on unrelated drugs and weapons charges, while Farrugia faces charges related to antisemitic graffiti, arson, and alleged participation in a criminal group.
• Farrugia’s charges stem from a December 11 attack in Woollahra, targeting homes, vehicles, and buildings in a largely Jewish suburb.
• Authorities are investigating potential connections between local antisemitic incidents and overseas actors funding criminal activities.
