In a separate ABC interview, the daughter of an 86‑year‑old Holocaust survivor wounded in the attack sharply criticized Australia’s leaders and media over what she sees as an inadequate response to rising antisemitism since October 7, 2023.

A terrorist shooting targeted a Hanukkah celebration at Sydney’s Bondi Beach, killing at least 15 people and injuring dozens during the first night of the Jewish holiday, according to Australian authorities and multiple news outlets. A bystander tackled and disarmed one of the gunmen, an act officials and world leaders say likely saved lives. The attack has been widely described as antisemitic amid a sharp rise in anti-Jewish incidents in Australia since late 2023.
