Boy, 16, charged over Anzac Day terror plot

A teenager has been charged with plotting a terrorist attack on an Australian Veteran's Day ceremony - the second year in a row that authorities say they have thwarted an attack linked to the national holiday.

The 16-year-old boy was charged with one count of planning a terrorist act after being arrested at his home in western Sydney on Sunday, a day before Australians across the country gathered at ceremonies to mark Anzac Day.
