Police have carried out a series of anti-terrorism raids in south-west Sydney.
The joint counter-terrorism team in Sydney said a number of search warrants were executed as part of Operation Duntulm on Friday morning.
The Australian federal police did not provide any more details about the “investigative operation” but said further details would be provided in due course.
Operation Duntulm focuses on foreign incursion offences.
Eleven people have also been charged under another counter-terrorism investigation, Operation Appleby, which has targeted a nameless group of up to 20 people who sympathise with militant group Islamic State.
