Abstract

The article focuses on a bomb scare that prompted Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to evacuate his official residence in Canberra. The scare was linked to threats made against Albanese and other officials, allegedly sent to members of the "Shen Yun" dance troupe, which is associated with the Falun Gong religious group banned in China. The threats demanded the cancellation of the troupe's performances in Australia and claimed explosives were hidden at the prime minister's residence. The Australian Federal Police conducted a thorough search but found nothing suspicious. Albanese later downplayed the incident on social media, expressing gratitude for the support he received.
