Thousands are expected to join anti-immigration protests in Sydney and Melbourne today, prompting the Premier of New South Wales to urge organisers and participants to stay home. The demonstrations follow last weekend's deadly attack at Bondi Beach, where two men allegedly opened fire during a Jewish Hanukkah celebration, resulting in multiple deaths and injuries. Authorities warn that such protests could intensify the grief experienced by affected communities, as families continue to mourn the victims. Despite calls for cancellation, organisers are pressing ahead with the planned rallies in major Australian cities.
