Israeli attacks leave at least 20 dead in Gaza

A fatal shooting incident took place at Australia’s popular Bondi Beach on Sunday, in an attack that police said targeted the country’s Jewish community. At least 11 people were killed in the attack, with another 29 injured, police said at a press conference. No details have yet been given about the victims of the shooting.
Of the two suspected attackers, one is in custody in critical condition and the other was shot dead at the scene, according to police. Authorities have so far not provided any details about the identities of these suspects.
More than 1,000 people were attending a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach when the shooting occurred, police said, adding that the attack was “designed to target Sydney’s Jewish community.” The fact the shooting took place on the first day of Hanukkah, as well other circumstances including the types of weapons at the scene and the offenders, led a terrorist incident to be declared a few hours after the attack, police said.
