Anthony Albanese said the attack was ‘deliberately targeted at the Jewish community’, as police confirm the alleged shooters were a father and son
A father and son have been identified as the alleged shooters in a terrorist attack at Sydney’s Bondi beach, as authorities confirm the death toll from the massacre has risen to 16, including one child.
The Australian prime minister, Anthony Albanese, said the shooting was “an act of pure evil, an act of antisemitism, an act of terrorism on our shores”.
It is Australia’s worst mass shooting in 29 years.
A police statement on Monday said 14 people died at the scene, with two more dying in hospital overnight. They said 40 people were injured.
