SYDNEY >> Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was ‌booed by an angry crowd gathered at the famous Bondi beach on Sunday to honor the victims of a gun attack a week earlier that targeted a seaside Jewish Hanukkah festival event.

Anthony Albanese said his government will examine whether police and spy services have the powers, structures, and sharing arrangements ‘to keep Australians safe’.

Dec. 21 (UPI) -- Seven days after a mass shooting devastated Bondi Beach, Australians gathered on Sunday for a national day of reflection.

Australia is observing a national Day of Reflection one week after the deadly shooting at a Jewish festival on Bondi Beach, with crowds gathering at a waterfront memorial and people across the country lighting candles and holding a minute of silence at exactly 6:47 p.m. local time, the moment the first shots were fired; the attack left 15 people dead and dozens injured, including 13 who remain hospitalized, and was carried out by a father and son, the latter previously flagged for possible radicalization, prompting the prime minister on Sunday to order a review of Australia’s security and intelligence services, as France24 correspondent Richelle Harrison reports with the latest.

Israeli leaders on Sunday “loudly blamed” the Australian government for ignoring warnings of antisemitic threats, FRANCE 24’s Noga Tarnopolsky reported, noting that Tel Aviv has offered little condolence to Australia’s Jewish community. Tarnopolsky also highlighted a pattern of attacks on Jewish communities during holidays, including the Manchester attack on Yom Kippur and the October 7 Hamas attack on Simchat Torah.
