Australia is now at a heightened risk of a terror attack in the wake of the Brereton report into alleged SAS war crimes. Global security expert Professor Dr Rohan Gunaratna at RSIS recently warned the Australian government that since March, there has been a decline in the number of terror attacks, but a dramatic increase in the footprint of these groups. “Radicalisation has peaked during this period because many of these groups have been active online trying to co-opt people (during the Covid-19 pandemic),” he told the Daily Telegraph.
