Sydney Antisemitic Attacks Linked to Fake Terror Plot and Organised Crime

Authorities reveal a fabricated caravan bomb plot and a series of attacks were orchestrated by criminals for personal gain, not ideological motives.

Police allege that the antisemitic attacks across Sydney, including a caravan filled with explosives, were part of a criminal scheme to instill fear and distract law enforcement.
Sayet Erhan Akca, a businessman facing drug charges, is a key suspect in the caravan plot and is believed to have fled overseas in 2023.
Authorities arrested over a dozen individuals connected to the attacks, including Sayed Moosawi, who is accused of directing arson attacks under the alias 'James Bond.'
The attacks caused significant damage, including $3.4 million in losses from an arson attack on a Maroubra childcare center and over $1 million in damages to a kosher café.
Police confirmed that the attacks were not ideologically driven but part of an organised crime operation, heightening fears within Sydney's Jewish community.
