Police are looking for a person who poured the fluid on the front door of the synagogue before setting it off on Friday night. About 20 people who had dinner were evacuated without any injuries.
Police are also trying to determine whether this incident is attacked by a Jew restaurant on the same night.
A number of anti-Semitic attacks have taken place in Australia over the past few months, caused by the tension of Israel-Homas war.

“Anti -Semitism has no place in Australia,” said Prime Minister Anthony Albonez after an attack on the Eastern Melbourne synagogue.
“Those who are responsible for these shocking acts should face the full force of the law, and my government will provide all the necessary support for these efforts,” Albanese said.
It is unclear whether the incident was linked to the attack on the Miznon restaurant in the business area of the city, during which the riots broke, throwing chairs and other objects, chanting “death to IDF (Israeli Defense Forces)”. Some attackers handcuffed.
“These events are a serious escalation aimed at our community,” said Alex Rivchin, Executive Director of the Australian Jewish Executive Council.
“There were too many anti -Semitic attacks in Australia,” said Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar.
“The Australian government must do more to fight this toxic disease.”
The conflict in the Middle East continued has become a changing political issue in Australia.
This led to protests from both Jewish and Muslim communities, as well as sharp excitement in Islamophobia and anti -Semitism.
The Israeli military launched a campaign in Gaza in response to the attack on October 7, 2023, which killed about 1,200 people, and 251 people were taken hostage.
According to the Ministry of Health of the territory, at least 57,268 people were killed in gas.
