Melbourne Islamic Group Grant Cancelled Over 'Social Cohesion' Concerns

The Australian federal government has cancelled a grant to a Melbourne Islamic community association, citing 'social cohesion concerns' after reports that the group was mourning the death of Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Details of the grant and the group's response remain unclear, but the decision reflects the government's sensitivity to perceived foreign influence and community cohesion issues.
