Sydney, Australia (HRNW) – A mass shooting attack at Bondi Beach during a Jewish Hanukkah celebration has left at least 11 people dead and 29 injured, authorities confirmed on Sunday. Two gunmen opened fire at the outdoor event on December 14, 2025, prompting widespread panic as families and community members fled for safety.
At least one of the attackers was fatally shot by police, while the other was arrested in critical condition. Officials classified the attack as a terrorist incident targeting the Jewish community, with emergency services describing powerful gunfire and chaotic scenes as people sought shelter and first responders raced to assist the wounded.
Australian leaders, including the Prime Minister, have condemned the violence and emphasized unity against hate and extremism. Law enforcement continues a thorough investigation while securing the area and collecting evidence.
