Multiple Australian outlets report that a crime network believed to be based in Iraq is suspected of involvement in a series of Melbourne firebombings. According to the reports, the allegation is based on information contained in a new report, which points to a “global” organised crime group and identifies an Iraqi-linked network as the likely source. The outlets describe the incident pattern as a “spate” of arson attacks across Melbourne, with the firebombings forming the core of the investigation. While the reports do not provide additional operational details—such as the specific locations attacked, the number of incidents, or whether any arrests have been made—they present the suspected link as the key finding of the report. The articles also do not attribute the claim to police charges or court proceedings, instead framing it as an assessment made in the report. Overall, the sources agree that the suspected perpetrator is an Iraqi crime network and that the case centers on multiple firebomb attacks in Melbourne.
