Bondi terror attack kills 15, raises urgent questions about gun licensing and intelligence failures in Australia.
Australia is reeling after a terror attack in Bondi left 15 people dead, including a 10-year-old girl and a Holocaust survivor, in one of the darkest days in the nation’s history. The alleged gunman was previously known to ASIO and had been investigated over potential links to the Al Madina Dawah Centre.
Authorities are now urgently reviewing how the individual was able to legally hold a gun licence and own six firearms, despite earlier investigations. The case is raising serious questions about intelligence sharing, gun licensing safeguards, and warning signs that may have been missed.
The attack has sparked an outpouring of grief and solidarity, particularly toward Australia’s Jewish community, as political leaders and the public grapple with the scale and impact of the tragedy.
