In response to a disturbing rise in antisemitic incidents in Sydney, including a recent arson attack on a childcare center, authorities are intensifying their investigative efforts. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced that the national cabinet would convene to address antisemitism nationwide. The NSW Premier, Chris Minns, affirmed that the government has not lost control of the situation, asserting police will pursue the perpetrators. Eyewitnesses expressed horror at the attacks, emphasizing the clear targeting of the Jewish community and the alarming nature of these racist crimes.
It's very close to home. To smell the fire here, it's shocking. The fact that it's a childcare centre – how low can you go? I just think it's disgusting, it's a disgrace. These people are deliberately targeting the Jewish community. It's a crime. It's clearly a racist crime.
The prime minister had earlier visited the childcare centre in Maroubra. The New South Wales premier, Chris Minns, denied he had lost control of the crisis, while state police confirmed arrests had been made over separate vandalism incidents.
