(Age) Two men who firebombed a Melbourne mosque in the name of Islamic State and were planning Christmas Day atrocities across the city have each been jailed for 22 years for terrorism offences.
Abdullah Chaarani and Ahmed Mohamed must serve at least 17 years in prison for their roles in destroying the Imam Ali Islamic Centre in Fawkner by fire in the early hours on December 11, 2016, and for an unsuccessful attempt 16 days earlier.
A third man, Hatim Moukhaiber, was jailed for 16 years for his role in the attack and must serve at least 12 years before he is eligible for parole.
He was recruited by the other two men after their initial attempt to burn down the mosque failed.
