French computer engineer Dan Elkayam, 27, was among the 15 killed in Sunday's antisemitic terrorist shooting at a Hanukkah event on Sydney's Bondi Beach. The father-son attackers were stopped by police and a heroic bystander, amid international outrage over rising antisemitism.
New Year's celebrations kicked off in the Pacific and Australia, with Sydney positioning itself as the world's capital of the event. However, festivities in the Australian city took on a bittersweet tone due to the attack that occurred weeks earlier on Bondi beach. Fireworks lit up the sky, but the memory of the incident overshadowed the night.
