The events unfolded in the morning hours during a holiday when the Jewish community gathered for an event that, according to Sky News, involved around 2000 people. Suddenly, gunshots rang out, causing panic and chaos among those present. Preliminary reports indicate that the shooting came from a bridge located near the beach, after which the shooters attempted to flee the scene.

According to police reports, one of the shooters was disarmed by a passerby, which was captured on video. As a result of the incident, one of the attackers was killed, while another was injured and apprehended. Initially, there were reports of a possible third participant; however, the New South Wales police confirmed the arrest of only two suspects.

Australian authorities expressed their concern regarding the incident. A representative of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese stated that the authorities are aware of the situation and urged everyone in the beach area to follow the instructions of law enforcement. Police also recommended that people seek shelter and avoid visiting the Bondi area.

The investigation is ongoing, and information regarding the number of casualties and injuries will be updated.
