Gefen Bitton, an Israeli national who bravely intervened during the recent Bondi Beach shooting, has been granted permanent residency in Australia. Bitton, who was attending a Hanukkah celebration when the attack occurred, ran towards danger to assist in stopping the gunmen and was critically injured in the process. After being shot three times and spending over two weeks in a coma, he remains in intensive care and has undergone multiple surgeries. The decision to grant him permanent residency ensures he will have access to essential medical support as he continues his recovery, and a fundraiser for his ongoing treatment has received significant community support.
