Chilling video warning as arson attack comes under terror investigation
Melbourne-based defence manufacturer Lovitt Technologies was attacked by an unknown group last July
A suspected arson attack on a Melbourne defence manufacturer last year is being investigated as an act of terror, as police release video images of a masked figure declaring “death to Australia”.
The Victorian Joint Counter Terrorism Team has today released new images related to the attack on Lovitt Technologies, which took place at 3.55am on Saturday, July 5.
The images appear to show suspects vandalising the Greensborough business and setting multiple vehicles on the property on fire.
Investigators allege the group posted an online video claiming responsibility for the attack last year.
Members shown in the post wore black hooded jumpers, backpacks, and gloves.
“If you continue making weapons components of any kind, there will be consequences,” a modified voice says in the video.
“Death to Israel, death to Australia, death to America.”
