A man charged with torching a Melbourne synagogue, in an antisemitic attack that Australia accuses Iran of directing, was remanded in custody when he appeared in court Wednesday.
Ali Younes, 20, became the second suspect last week to be charged for the December arson attack on the Adass Israel Synagogue. Police allege three masked arsonists dowsed the building’s interior with a liquid accelerant before igniting it, causing extensive damage and injuring a worshipper.
