There is also a Qatar Airways flight QR7424 currently operating DWC-SYD by B77W which is due to arrive at 17:55 today. This is probably a repatriation flight carrying passengers from the TVL-DWC military flights.
I suspect OQL maybe replacing OQI on the QF1/2 rotation, not sure why. FWIW the QR flight was probably picking up the last leg of the repatriation flights, which as far as I can tell were operated out of Israel by HiFly A330/340s. I have been unable to ascertain what RAAF assets are helping, and are somewhat surprised to see no MRTT ops given that seems to be the aircraft of choice for quite a few other nations.
