What we know about the Bondi Beach terror attack

from The Current

Two gunmen attacked the Jewish holiday event, Hanukkah by the Sea on Bondi Beach, Australia on Sunday. Hundreds were there to celebrate the first day of Hanukkah. At least 15 people were killed, and dozens more were injured. One of the attackers was also killed, the other is in critical condition. We talk to Ben Knight from the vigil in Sydney. He is a senior reporter for ABC News Victoria, and a former ABC correspondent based in Jerusalem and Washington. We also talk to Rabbi Steve Wernick, the Senior Rabbi of Beth Tzedec Congregation in Toronto about how the pain being felt in Australia is reverberating in Jewish communities around the world.
