Israeli spy agency Mossad has named the Iranian Revolutionary Guard commander it says was behind attacks on Jewish sites in Sydney and Melbourne, as well as other violent incidents in other countries. In a rare statement, the secretive foreign intelligence service identified Sardar Amar, a senior commander in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, as the official who drove the 2024 arson attacks on the Adass Israel Synagogue in Melbourne and Lewis’ Continental Kitchen in Sydney. The Albanese government expelled Iran’s ambassador to Australia and listed the IRGC as a terror organisation after domestic spy agency ASIO revealed it believed Iran was behind the attacks. In a statement uploaded to its website, Mossad said: “Under Amar’s command, a significant mechanism was established to promote attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets both in Israel and abroad.
