Israel: Australia Warned of Jewish Threat Before Bondi Attack

  • Israel warned Australia about potential threats to the Jewish community before the deadly Bondi Beach attack.
  • Oren Marmorstein, Israel's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, noted a pattern of targeted violence against Jews and open calls for a global intifada in Australia.
  • The attack targeted an annual Jewish "Chanukah by the Sea" event at Archer Park, where two gunmen opened fire.
  • Police neutralized one attacker and arrested another after a bystander bravely disarmed one of the gunmen.
  • An IED found in the attackers' car confirmed a pre-meditated antisemitic terrorist plot, resulting in at least 16 deaths.

Why It Matters: It highlights the failure to protect Jewish communities despite prior warnings of threats.
