Global surge in Iranian-linked terror plots against Jewish targets exposed by intelligence sources following the deadly Australian shooting attack.

A Holocaust survivor, a 10-year-old and a Chabad rabbi were among the 15 people killed when two gunmen opened fire on a Hanukkah event at Australia's Bondi Beach on Sunday. Hundreds of people had gathered to mark the first day of the Jewish festival before the attackers struck at the event in Sydney.

Less than 48 hours after the deadly attack at Sydney's Bondi Beach that left more than a dozen dead, Australian authorities announced proposals for sweeping new gun laws.

The two men who killed 15 people on Sunday were driven by “Islamic State ideology,” Prime Minister Anthony Albanese told Australia’s public broadcaster.

Government authorities have not done enough to stamp out hatred of Jews in Australia, which has allowed it to fester in the aftermath of October 7, said the daughter of a Holocaust survivor who was wounded at the Bondi shootings on Sunday.

Sheina Gutnick's dad came to Australia to escape persecution for his Jewish faith, and his murder in Bondi has left her feeling "betrayed by the government."

Police and local media reports said the shooting began while some people were attending a Hanukkah party on the beach. At least 40 people were hospitalized.

Two of Australia’s top lenders said on Tuesday they expect the Reserve Bank will return to interest-rate increases in February in order to tackle persistent price pressures in the economy.

The deadly terror attack at Bondi Beach in Sydney comes amid a significant spike in antisemitic rhetoric and attacks in Australia.
