Increase in home-grown terrorists in Australia | 60 Minutes Australia

Earlier this year, the boss of Australia's spy agency Mike Burgess delivered his annual threat assessment, revealing that Australians are facing the most dangerous and degrading security threats in more than 50 years.

The national terrorism threat level was raised from possible to probable in 2024, and remains the same even after the terror attack at Bondi Beach that killed 15 people and one of the gunmen.

The ASIO Director General told #60Mins most of the agency's terror-related investigations involved home-grown, young men; fuelled by violence, personal grievances and conspiracy theories; and radicalised within days or weeks.

He has also pleaded with tech companies to recognise that their platforms allow violent extremist material to be immediately and easily accessible to impressionable young people.
