Australian authorities this week prevented two Islamic State atrocities by one group of suspects.
The first involved a bomb that was to be hidden in airline luggage. According to Australian federal police, an ISIS handler in Syria sent two suspects a military-grade explosive via air cargo shipment from Turkey. One of the suspects had been communicating with that handler since April. One suspect then hid the explosives in a kitchen meat grinder and put it in his brother’s bag.
