At least 11 people were killed in a mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration on Sydney's Bondi Beach, an attack that Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese labeled as antisemitic terrorism. The incident comes amid a sharp rise in antisemitic attacks in Australia, with over 1,700 incidents reported this year, making it one of the countries with the largest increases globally. Jewish leaders and organizations have criticized the Australian government for not doing enough to address the growing threat, urging immediate and decisive action to protect the community. The shooting, which claimed the life of Rabbi Eli Schlanger, highlights the vulnerability of Jewish gatherings and the broader concerns about safety and coexistence in Australia.
