THE SYDNEY Harbour Bridge has been lit up in white to honour victims of the Bondi Beach shooting.

Before Australia welcomed the New Year, a minute of silence was held for the fifteen people killed on the first night of Hanukkah.

A menorah was chosen to be projected on the landmark after an open letter from Jewish creatives.

Fifteen people were killed and many more injured when two shooters opened fire on Hanukkah celebrations in Sydney earlier this month.

The dead included a 10-year-old girl who was shot in front of her younger sister.

Tonight, Sydney came together to pay tribute to the victims, as Australia celebrated the start of 2026.
