Bondi Beach shooting: Antisemitism envoy says Australia must ‘stop with the hate’
Australia’s Antisemitism Envoy, Jillian Segal, has called for accelerated action to combat antisemitism and urged Australians to embrace the Jewish community, following the “horrific” Bondi attack.
At least 16 people are dead, including one of the gunmen, and 42 others are injured, in a terrorist attack authorities say was designed to target the Jewish community.
In an interview with SBS Chief Political Correspondent Anna Henderson, Segal said hateful words at protests had led to “hateful deeds”, calling for reform to laws including hate speech. “We need to stop with the hate, stop with the chants,” Segal said.
