Spies hiding in Australia + Trump endorses “hot” Sydney Sweeney
Description
Our ASIO boss has warned Australia is under a growing threat from foreign espionage with spying from a number of nations now at unprecedented levels. Days after that warning, Federal Police have arrested a Chinese National accused of allegedly spying on a local Buddhist group.
In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling is joined by intelligence expert Chris Taylor to unpack why we’re seeing an increase in foreign threats and why we all need to think twice about the information we share, especially online.
Headlines: Japanese shipbuilder Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has secured a $10 billion contract to build the Australian Navy’s new fleet of warships, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to announce plans to fully occupy the Gaza Strip, and Donald Trump has weighed into the Sydney Sweeney ad controversy.
