February 19, 2025
Australia’s spy agency ASIO uncovered three foreign governments plotting to harm individuals in the country, intervening to prevent attacks. It also disrupted a cyber unit targeting US and Australian infrastructure and alerted US authorities to a 12-year-old planning mass shootings. Additionally, foreign spies are targeting Australia’s AUKUS partnership to gather intelligence and undermine alliances. ASIO remains vigilant against these security threats.
