Australian police have recovered thousands of rounds of ammunition, Hamas and Hezbollah flags and a "shopping list" of materials to make explosives at the home of a man who allegedly made antisemitic social media posts.

Martin Thomas Glynn, 39, from a suburb of Perth in Western Australia, appeared for his court hearing Wednesday after being charged with three offenses, including carrying a prohibited weapon.

On Dec. 14, just hours after two gunmen killed 15 people at the famous Bondi Beach during a Hanukkah celebration, Glynn made social media posts pledging his support for the shooters, police alleged in a statement of facts before a court in Perth on Wednesday.

“I just want to say that I, Martin Glynn, 100 per cent support the New South Wales shooters,” he said in one of his posts, police told the court.

His arrest Tuesday came the same day the government in New South Wales, the country's most populous state, proposed a series of reforms that tighten gun ownership laws and ban protests on streets for up to three months. Glynn's arrest and the swift changes to gun laws are part of a broader effort by authorities to restore a sense of security in Australia, which has been rocked by the worst mass shooting in three decades.
