Gunman on run after 2 cops killed + Iran behind attacks in Australia

The Briefing

About this episode

For the first time since World War II, Australia has expelled an ambassador after the Prime Minister confirmed the Iranian Government directed at least two antisemitic attacks on Australian soil. ASIO Director General, Mike Burgess, said Iran was responsible for extraordinary and dangerous acts of aggression, in an attempt to undermine social cohesion. 

In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling is joined by intelligence expert Justin Bassi on why this is a dangerous escalation for Australia’s national security and what it means for our fragile international relations. 

Headlines: Two police officers have been killed in regional Victoria, Former Police officer, Beau Lamarre-Condon has plead not guilty to the murders of Sydney couple Jesse Baird and Luke Davies, and Australia Post has announced it will immediately suspend the majority of its mail deliveries to the US.
