- On Sunday, two gunmen emerged from a small silver hatchback and opened fire at 6:45 p.m., killing at least 15 civilians at a Hanukkah celebration on Bondi Beach, Sydney.

- Among those killed were a Holocaust survivor, Alexander Kleytman, two rabbis including Eli Schlanger, 41, and a 10-year-old girl named Matilda Bee Britvan.

- Ireland's foreign minister Helen McEntee said the consulate in Sydney is monitoring events and liaison inspectors will support the Jewish community, while Australia's intelligence chief Mike Burgess said one attacker was known to authorities.
