Alex Ryvchin, co-CEO of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry, told the commission that an arson attack on his former home in January 2025 signaled Australia was "on a path to catastrophe." He said he had received death threats and had images of his children posted online.

The commission's interim report, released April 30, contained 14 recommendations on counter-terrorism, five of which were withheld for national security reasons. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese committed to accepting all recommendations applicable to the Commonwealth.
