Australia dumped an Iranian ambassador because of anti -Semitic attacks

Australia says he will expel Iran’s ambassador after claiming that the government’s government is directing anti -Semitic attacks in Sydney and Melbourne.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the attacks were “exceptional and dangerous acts of aggression orchestrated by a foreign country.” No one was injured in the attacks that happened last year.

The head of the Australian Security Intelligence Organization (ASIO) Mike Burgess said his agency has intelligence, that Iran is probably “behind more attacks against Jewish goals in Australian incidents.

Ambassador Ahmad Sadegi and three other Iranian officials were ordered to leave Australia within seven days. Iran has not yet commented on the accusations.

Burgess said: “Iran has tried to cover up his participation, but Asio estimates that he is behind the attacks on the continental cuisine of Lewis in Sydney on October 20 last year and The The Adas Israel Sinagoga in Melbourne on December 6th. “

Foreign Minister Penny Wong said that for the first time after World War II, Australia expelled an ambassador.

Wong said Australia would continue to maintain some diplomatic lines with Tehran, but has stopped operations at her embassy in Iran on staff safety.

She also urged the Australians not to travel to Iran and called on all citizens in the country to leave now if it was safe to do so.

Albanese said his government would also define the Iranian Guard Corps of Irans (IRGC) as a terrorist organization.
