With news Iran orchestrated two antisemitic attacks in Australia last year, the federal government has declared the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps a terrorist group.
The Australian Security Intelligence Organisation’s Director-General Mike Burgess said the group, known as IRGC, “used a complex web of proxies to hide its involvement” in the attacks on Lewis Continental Kitchen in Sydney and the Adass Israel synagogue in Melbourne.
The IRGC has a long history in the Middle East as an extremely powerful armed force, both militarily and politically.
