DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. July 31, 2017, 8:52 AM (IDT)
As tightened security caused huge queues and disruptions at Australian airports, counter-terrorism were racing against time Monday in raids of Sydney homes for evidence against the four suspects in custody in connection with an aircraft plot. Australian Federal Police Commissioner Andrew Colvin said the men arrested, reportedly a father and son and another pair, were linked to an Islamist-inspired plot to detonate an improvised explosive device. Police declined to confirm local media reports that the terror plot involved concealing a device in a kitchen meat grinder or the possible use of poisonous gas.
Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
