The Department of Home Affairs would create a new National Terrorism Threat Advisory System (viewable here: https://modernnations.com/threads/australia-department-of-home-affairs.21642/) and would immediately raise the threat level to the second highest, EXPECTED due to the growing concerns around Turkey and Saudi Arabia and the threats they may issue to towards the Australian Government and Australian citizens in light of recent movements to support Israel. There was also a probable threat that they would recruit young and vulnerable Muslims in Australia to carry out such attacks. Secretly, The Australian Border Force would increase massive scrutiny on anyone coming from the Arab world or Turkey at the border. Also secretly done would be a massive increase in monitoring of Turkish and Saudi Arabian citizens in Australia by the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation and the Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre, who would file every financial transaction made by those people, including those employed by the Turkish or Saudi Arabian embassies. ASIO would also be stationing spy vans in secret nearby to the two embassies to monitor telephone calls and other communications coming out of those embassies. In their respective states and territories, the police forces across the country would ramp up patrols under this Task Force, this was done publicly. Extra police would be deployed to key sites such as railway stations, busy malls and other areas of high visitor numbers or key significance such as the Sydney Opera House and Federation Square in Melbourne and most importantly: Jewish institutions (synagogues, schools, communities particularly in the inner east of Melbourne and the eastern suburbs of Sydney). Road checkpoints would also be established across the country to monitor for the movement of weapons or known terrorists on ASIO's watchlist. The Australian Federal Police would have responsibility for ramping up patrols at most airports in Australia, seaports, the Australian Capital Territory including key sites such as Parliament House, the Russell Offices, The Lodge, Government House and the War Memorial, Jervis Bay Territory and in all external territories of Australia. They would also have responsibiltiy for other key sites around Australia such as the Commonwealth Parliament Offices in Sydney, Joint Defence Facility Pine Gap, Joint Defence Facility Nurunggar, the Woomera Test Range, the Australian Defence Satellite Communications Station, the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation Establishment Lucas Heights and Naval Communications Station Harold E. Holt. Australian Federal Police officers would also be placed on all domestic flights in Australia and all outbound international flights from Australia (and then inbound on available return flights). The AFP protective details for both the Prime Minsiter and Governor-General would be increased, including protection of key sites outside Canberra such as Kirribilli House and Admiralty House.
