Teen charged over terror plan in Australia

SYDNEY: Australian police charged a teenager Monday over a “truly chilling and disturbing” planned attack on an Anzac Day service, as people across the nation and in New Zealand honored their war dead.

Reports said the 16-year-old had tried to get hold of a gun over the weekend, and was believed to be planning to target the solemn ceremonies that mark the anniversary of the ill-fated Gallipoli campaign during World War I in which thousands died.
