Australia has listed Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a state sponsor of terrorism, Foreign Minister Penny Wong says, following an intelligence assessment that it had orchestrated attacks against Australia’s Jewish community.
Australia in August accused Iran of directing two antisemitic arson attacks in the cities of Sydney and Melbourne last year, and gave Tehran’s ambassador seven days to leave the country on Tuesday, its first such expulsion since World War II.
