An explosives-filled trailer found in Sydney was revealed to be a hoax and not intended for detonation, according to police. The trailer was part of a fabricated terrorist plot staged by criminals who sought personal gain by tipping off authorities. The discovery of the trailer, which contained explosives and a list of Jewish targets, led to concerns of an escalation in extremist violence. While the recent wave of antisemitic crimes in Australia has been committed by a small group or potentially one individual, authorities believe that antisemitism in the country has escalated in the past 18 months. The 14 people arrested in relation to the attacks now face charges.
