Sydney Israeli Consulate and Hakoah Club bombings

The bombing of the Israeli Consulate and Hakoah Club in Sydney occurred on 23 December 1982. The two bombings occurred on the same day within five hours of each other. The initial case led to a single arrest, although charges were later dropped. In 2011, New South Wales Police and Australian Federal Police reopened the case, citing new leads.[1][2][3][4] The bombing was one of a number of attacks that have been conducted against Israeli embassies and diplomats.
