Overview
- Strike Force Flodine executed fresh raids across south‑west Sydney, charging three more alleged contract criminals, including a 16‑year‑old, and seizing five cars, a firearm, ammunition, $41,000 in cash, GPS trackers and 37 phones.
- Police say Thursday’s actions target a G7-linked network of “kill cars” and are connected to Tuesday’s operation that stopped an alleged murder near a childcare centre in Revesby.
- In the earlier interdiction, three men aged 18, 19 and 26 were arrested after tactical officers halted two vehicles, with non‑lethal rounds used, and they were refused bail on conspiracy to commit murder and criminal group charges.
- Officers recovered two pistols at the scene and later found a third firearm, along with balaclavas, body‑worn cameras and jerry cans, and investigators allege the suspects used stolen vehicles with cloned plates.
- NSW Police say the intended victim is linked to organised crime and was targeted in an internal dispute within a transnational syndicate, and investigations continue to trace organisers and dismantle the network.
