Reported at www.sbs.com.au: Police have determined that a caravan filled with explosives in Dural, NSW, was part of a “fake terror plot” orchestrated by organised criminals, aimed at instilling fear in the Jewish community.

The caravan contained powergel explosives and a note with antisemitic content; police initially treated it as a credible threat but quickly realized it was fabricated.

Despite the plot being fake, authorities acknowledged that its discovery had a chilling effect on Jewish Australians, leading to heightened community concerns.
