Authorities have launched an investigation into this deadly attack that occurred during a Hanukkah event at Bondi Beach in Sydney.

In response to the violence, Israeli President Isaac Herzog addressed the incident during a Sunday event in Jerusalem that celebrated the remarkable achievements of immigrants.

“At these very moments, our sisters and brothers in Sydney, Australia, have been attacked by vile terrorists in a very cruel attack on Jews who went to light the first candle of Chanukah on Bondi Beach,” Herzog said. “Our hearts go out to them. The heart of the entire nation of Israel misses a beat at this very moment, as we pray for the recovery of the wounded, we pray for them and we pray for those who lost their lives.”

Herzog also called on the Australian government to “seek action and fight against the enormous wave of antisemitism which is plaguing Australian society.”
