Australia boots Iranian diplomats after alleging Islamic Republic behind recent antisemitic attacks
Tuesday, 26 August 2025 () Australia says it is expelling Iranian diplomats after its intelligence service determined that the Islamic Republic was behind recent antisemitic attacks in Sydney and Melbourne.
Australia has expelled Iran’s ambassador and three other officials, accusing Tehran of orchestrating antisemitic attacks in Melbourne and Sydney. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said these “extraordinary and dangerous acts of aggression” were attempts to sow discord in Australian society. The...
Iran’s Foreign Ministry has launched a blistering verbal offensive against German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, accusing Berlin of directly supporting Israel’s “war of aggression” against the Islamic Republic. In a fiery statement posted online, senior Iranian official Esmaeil Baqaei slammed Merz for endorsing what he called “atrocity crimes” and “unprovoked armed attacks” by Israel, claiming it violated the UN Charter’s Article 2(4). Labeling Germany’s position as both “illegal” and “criminal,” Baqaei said Berlin’s support amounts to “complicity in aggression” and warned that Germany now bears international legal responsibility. The remarks come as Iran seeks to rally global opinion against Israel following strikes on its territory, and as Tehran accuses Western powers of shielding Israeli actions. Iran’s legal framing of Germany’s conduct could escalate diplomatic tensions and spark fierce debates at global forums including the UN and ICJ.

Iran’s top IRGC commander has issued a chilling warning to Israel, claiming the Islamic Republic used “less than 5%” of its defensive power in recent retaliatory strikes. Brigadier General Naghdi emphasized that Iran’s core ground forces remain untouched, suggesting future strikes could be far more devastating. Tehran’s missile barrage on June 13 targeted strategic Israeli military sites. Experts say the U.S. burned through 20% of its THAAD stockpile in support—costing over $800 million in just 12 days.

A major diplomatic storm has erupted as Australia expels Iran’s envoy, accusing Tehran of orchestrating anti-Jewish attacks, including the torching of a Sydney kosher café and a Melbourne synagogue. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese condemned Iran’s alleged role, calling it “extraordinary foreign aggression.” Tehran, denying the charges and branding anti-Semitism a Western phenomenon, vowed retaliation. Canberra has suspended its Tehran embassy, escalated tensions, and is now considering designating Iran’s IRGC as a terror group—pushing relations to their lowest point.

In a dramatic show of defiance and solidarity, over 90,000 protesters flooded Sydney Harbour Bridge on Sunday in what organisers hailed as a "historic" pro-Palestinian demonstration. Despite heavy rain and a last-minute legal battle, the Supreme Court authorised the event just 24 hours prior. The peaceful protest, dubbed the "March for Humanity", featured families, activists, and notable figures like Julian Assange,
MP Ed Husic, and ex-NSW Premier Bob Carr. Chants of “Ceasefire now” echoed across the bridge as riot police stood guard. The NSW Police had initially tried to block the protest, citing safety risks, but the court found no evidence a ban would enhance security. The march caused major traffic disruptions across Sydney, and sparked debate, with the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies calling the court’s decision “disappointing.” Meanwhile, pressure grows on Australia to recognise Palestine, but PM Albanese says he won’t act unless conditions for Israel’s security are met.
