2025 Bondi Beach Hanukkah massacre was an antisemitic Islamic terrorist attack carried out on 14 December 2025, during the first night of Hanukkah, at the public Jewish celebration Hanukkah by the Sea at Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia. The attack killed 16 people and wounded at least 40 others, including children and elderly victims, making it the deadliest mass shooting in Australia since the Port Arthur massacre.[1][2][3][4][5]
Australian authorities classified the shooting as a terrorist attack targeting Jewish Australians.
Background
Hanukkah by the Sea was an annual public Hanukkah celebration organized by the Chabad-Lubavitch movement, drawing between 1,000 and 2,000 attendees, including families and children from Sydney’s Jewish community.[6]
The attack occurred amid a documented rise in antisemitic incidents in Australia following the Hamas-led attacks on Israel on 7 October 2023. The dangerous phrase "globalize the Intifada" was specifically mentioned.[7]
Ahead of the attack
The son of a former Iranian ambassador posted a message critical of Hanukkah celebrations shortly before the attack, describing them in negative terms and calling for defense.[8]
Attack
The shooting began shortly before 6:47 p.m. local time. Two attackers arrived by car and opened fire on the crowd from an elevated area near a pedestrian bridge overlooking Bondi Park.[6]
Police received the first emergency calls at 6:47 p.m., issued public shelter warnings at 7:05 p.m., and engaged the attackers over the following minutes. One attacker was killed at the scene; the second was critically wounded and hospitalized under police guard.[1]
Improvised explosive devices were later found in the attackers’ vehicle and at their residence, though none were activated.[1]
Perpetrators
Australian authorities identified the attackers as a father and son:
- Naveed Akram (24), who survived and was hospitalized
- His father (approximately 50), who was shot and killed by police[9] Both, ISIS inspired.
Both Muslim men were legally licensed firearm owners, possessing at least six registered weapons despite Australia’s strict gun laws.[10]
Investigators determined the suspects had pledged allegiance to ISIS, with the younger attacker previously examined for possible extremist ties years earlier.[11]
As a "baby-faced" 17-year-old, Naveed Akram was already a fervent follower of Islam, preaching on the streets of western Sydney.[12]
Victims
Casualties
- 15 killed
- '42 wounded initially'[1]
Victims ranged in age from 10 to 87 years old.[9]
Among Identified victims
- Rabbi Eli Schlanger (41), a Chabad emissary and organizer of the event, father of five including a two-month-old baby[13]
- Alex Kleytman, a Holocaust survivor, killed while shielding his wife from gunfire[14]
- Dan Elkayam (27), a French Jewish engineer who had recently immigrated to Australia[15]
- Heroic Couple Boris and Sofia Gurman Who tackled gunman.
Many victims remained hospitalized, while a fundraiser for the bystander who stopped one attacker exceeded one million dollars in donations; a Syrian immigrant was hailed for disarming a gunman.[16]
Eyewitness accounts
Survivors described the scene as chaotic, with sustained gunfire, mass panic, and victims collapsing on the sand. Australian-Israeli activist Arsen Ostrovsky, who was wounded in the head, described the attack as an “absolute bloodbath.”[17]
Heroes
civilian intervention
- Boris & Sofia Gurman. Heroic couple who tackled gunman.
- Boris Gurman (69, retired mechanic) and Sofia Gurman (61, Australia Post worker), a Russian-Jewish couple from Bondi married for 34 years (35th anniversary approaching), were killed after confronting a shooter.[3][4] - Dashcam footage showed Boris tackling Sajid Akram as he exited a car with an Islamic State flag, temporarily disarming him, with Sofia assisting.[5] - Their family praised their selflessness; a fundraiser for their son raised over $100,000. Colleagues honored Sofia.[3]
- Chaya.
A 14-year-old girl named Chaya displayed remarkable bravery during the Islamist terrorist attack on a Hanukkah celebration ("Chanukah by the Sea") at Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia, on December 14, 2025.
While attending the event, Chaya was near the attackers when the shooting began. In the midst of the chaos, she spotted two young children and threw herself on top of them, using her body to shield them from the gunfire. She was shot in the leg but stayed in position protecting the children until rescuers arrived.
Chaya, hospitalized for her injuries, shared her account with members of United Hatzalah's Psychotrauma and Crisis Response Unit during their visit. The organization highlighted her actions in a press release, praising her for saving the lives of the two children.[18]
- Ahmed al-Ahmed, a 43-year-old Sydney fruit shop owner from Syria, tackled one of the gunmen from behind and wrestled away his firearm. He was shot and wounded but is widely credited with preventing further mass casualties.[19]
- Vanessa, a mom.
Amid the chaos, a pregnant mother named Jess (five months along, with a 3-year-old son and 18-month-old baby) became separated from her family while searching for her son. She spotted a crying 3-year-old girl, Gigi, whose parents Vanessa and Wayne had lost track of her. Jess ran to Gigi, lay on top of her as a human shield, and calmly reassured her: "I got you, we are going to stay here and be nice and safe and no one is going to hurt us." Video footage showed blood dripping down Jess's forehead as bullets flew around them; a woman was fatally shot nearby. Jess protected Gigi until the shooting stopped.
Wayne later found Gigi safe under Jess, who said, "I've got your daughter, I've been protecting her." Jess reunited with her own unharmed son. On Tuesday, December 16, the families met in an emotional reunion: the mothers embraced in tears, with Vanessa thanking Jess for running "towards the bullets" to save Gigi, saying she wouldn't be alive otherwise. Jess humbly responded: "I'm just a mum and I did what mums do."[20]
- Gefen Bitton, a 30-year-old Israeli living and working in Australia as a garage door installer, is in 'critical condition and a coma' following the terrorist massacre attack.[21]
He was shot three times while heroically rushing toward the gunmen to confront them and assist others during the antisemitic mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration, which killed 15 people and injured dozens.
Bitton had initially escaped but returned to the scene, appearing in social media footage approaching one attacker alongside another bystander to distract or disarm him.
He has undergone multiple surgeries and remains in the ICU at St Vincent’s Hospital, with friends and family describing him as an "absolute hero" and praying for his recovery. A GoFundMe has been set up to support him.
Police
- A 22-year-old probationary constable, Jack Hibbert, who had been with NSW Police for only four months, was seriously injured during the massacre.[22]
While patrolling a Hanukkah celebration event, he was shot in the head and shoulder while heroically responding to the gunfire. Despite his severe injuries, Hibbert continued assisting others until he physically could no longer do so. He was rushed to intensive care, intubated, and underwent multiple surgeries. Miraculously surviving, he has permanently lost vision in one eye and faces a long, challenging recovery with further surgeries needed.
- Detective Senior Constable Cesar "Cess" Barraza has been hailed a hero for his actions during the massacre.[23]
Barraza, a local detective who previously appeared on a reality TV show, was filmed taking down two rifle-wielding suspects from around 130 feet away with a “once-in-a-lifetime shot” while hiding behind a tree. Despite only being armed with a handgun and wearing a detective uniform, including a shirt and tie, Barraza’s quick thinking and accuracy helped end the terror. He has since been praised for his bravery and commitment to fighting crime.
Investigation and response
Police raided a property linked to the attackers in Bonnyrigg, detaining multiple individuals for questioning. Authorities ruled out the involvement of a third attacker and increased nationwide security measures during Hanukkah.[24]
'Encouraging Antisemitism’: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reminded his Australian counterpart, Anthony Albanese, of an earlier warning “that the Australian government’s policy was promoting and encouraging antisemitism in Australia.”[25]
Muslim bigot senator's visit
Islamic politician, Mehreen Farouki faced confrontations and criticism over past statements related to Israel and antisemitism during visits to the site, especially a post in 2024 she was forced to delete, at a protest beside a sign that 'throws Israel in the trash'.[26]
Intelligence warnings
Israeli intelligence officials said that Mossad had repeatedly warned Australian authorities about the risk of antisemitic terror attacks targeting Jewish communities, including threats linked to Iran and other actors. According to these accounts, the warnings were issued over an extended period and highlighted growing danger amid rising antisemitism. Australian police leadership publicly denied that there was any specific intelligence indicating an imminent attack before the Bondi Beach shooting, creating a sharp dispute over whether the massacre could have been anticipated or prevented.[27]
Record high hate
"The Executive Council of Australian Jewry (ECAJ) recently documented 1,654 anti-Jewish incidents across Australia between 1 Oct, 2024 and 30 Sept. 2025, "in addition to 2,062 incidents nationwide the year before."[28]
Ideological analysis
Commentators argued that the Bondi Beach massacre was not an isolated incident but the result of years of increasingly normalized radical anti-Israel and antisemitic rhetoric. They described the attack as a real-world manifestation of calls to “globalize the intifada,” where slogans and incitement translated into direct violence against Jews in public spaces. The analysis framed the shooting as the culmination of a climate in which extremist language was tolerated, dehumanization spread, and violence against Jewish civilians became an accepted outcome rather than a shocking anomaly.[29]
Article points out: - Direct genocidal threats, such as a woman in Melbourne telling a rabbi and his young children to "go to the gas chambers" (while carrying a PLO flag bag) or protesters chanting "gas the Jews" without repercussions, represent unambiguous hatred, not legitimate political expression. - Society's response—providing "context" (e.g., linking it to anger over Israel's war with Hamas, trauma, or global tensions)—is portrayed as evasion and complicity, uniquely applied when Jews are targeted under the guise of anti-Zionism. - Anti-Zionism is criticized as a moral inversion that delegitimizes Jewish self-determination while accepting it for other peoples, turning antisemitism into a "negotiable" issue. - Examples of tolerated incitement include chants like "Globalize the Intifada" or historical references to massacres of Jews, inconsistent law enforcement (e.g., arresting Jews for "provocation" in England), and media softening of incidents (e.g., calling massacres "incidents" or threats "heated rhetoric"). - Antisemitism thrives on "permission structures": excused slogans, reframing Jewish identity as provocative, and endless contextualization, which erode the barrier between speech and violence. - The Bondi attack is seen as the culmination of this failure—no isolated event, but foretold by unaddressed hatred rebranded as politics.[30]
Another article states that sustained incitement against Israel, amplified in media and other spheres, contributed to fueling deadly antisemitic violence [31]
Reactions
Australia
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese described the shooting as “an act of evil antisemitic terrorism” and stated that an attack on Jewish Australians was “an attack on every Australian.”[1]
Victim's daughter Victoria Teplitsky accused ABC News of biased reporting fueling antisemitism.[32][33]
National Response and Commemoration
Australia marked one week after the attack with a nationwide moment of silence and a Day of Reflection. Vigils were held across the country, with major commemorations taking place at Bondi Beach under heightened security. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese described the day as a moment for Australia to stand with its Jewish community.[34][35]
'Light over darkness’:[36][37]
Candles were lit nationwide, television and radio broadcasts paused for a minute of silence at 6:47 p.m., the time the attack began, and flags were flown at half-staff on government buildings.[38]
Tens of thousands attended the Bondi Beach memorial amid heavy security, including rooftop police snipers and maritime patrols. Albanese, who attended wearing a kippah, was booed by some members of the crowd upon arrival and again when his name was mentioned during the ceremony. He was not scheduled to speak at the event.[38]
David Ossip, president of the New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies, said the attack marked a loss of national innocence, while emphasizing resilience and hope drawn from the Hanukkah tradition. Fourteen-year-old survivor Chaya Dadon also addressed the crowd, speaking about national strength and recovery.[38]
| “ | The government has said it has consistently denounced antisemitism over the last two years and passed legislation to criminalize hate speech. It expelled the Iranian ambassador earlier this year after accusing Tehran of directing two antisemitic arson attacks.
“We have lost our innocence… last week took our innocence,” David Ossip, the president of the New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies said in a speech to start the proceedings at Bondi. “Like the grass here at Bondi was stained with blood, so, too, has our nation been stained. We have landed up in a dark place. But friends, Hanukkah teaches us that light can illuminate even the bleakest of places. A single act of courage, a single flame of hope, can give us direction and point the path forward.” Speaking at the memorial, 14-year-old survivor Chaya Dadon said: “We are getting stronger as a nation. We are growing. Sometimes growing hurts… life is going to move on and why not make the best of it.” |
” |
New South Wales Premier Chris Minns, who was met with applause, said the attack sought to intimidate and marginalize the Jewish community, adding that the public had “reclaimed Bondi Beach.”[38]
Legislative and Policing Measures
In the wake of the attack, the New South Wales government announced reforms to hate speech and public order laws. Premier Chris Minns stated that the slogan “globalize the intifada” would be classified as hate speech and banned under state law, citing its historical association with violence and terrorism.[39]
The reforms grant police expanded authority to shut down unauthorized protests for periods of up to three months, require demonstrators to remove face coverings, and prohibit the public display of flags or symbols associated with designated terrorist organizations, including ISIS, Hamas, Hezbollah, al-Qaeda, and Boko Haram.[40]
Prime Minister Albanese also announced a nationwide review of law enforcement and intelligence agencies, led by a former head of Australia’s intelligence service, to examine information-sharing, firearms licensing, and counterterrorism preparedness. The review is expected to conclude by April 2026.[38]
Community Support
Public support for victims’ families included fundraising campaigns, notably by Build-A-Bear Australia, which sold out of a limited-edition stuffed toy honoring Matilda Bee within three days. The company encouraged continued donations through an online fundraising page established for the family.[41]
Calls for Inquiry
The Bondi Beach attack prompted calls for a federal Royal Commission into potential security failures. Critics cited gaps in firearms licensing assessments, intelligence sharing between agencies, and prior threat evaluations of the perpetrators.[42] linked to violence should not be treated as protected political expression.[43]
In the United States, controversy arose after Richmond, California Mayor Eduardo Martinez shared social media content alleging the attack was a “false flag” operation. The mayor later deleted the posts and issued apologies following widespread public and political criticism.[44]
International
Condemnations were issued by leaders including:
- U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio[45]
- French President Emmanuel Macron
- Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi
- UN Secretary-General António Guterres[45]
- US Congress members affirmed support and urged stronger antisemitism measures.[46]
- The Israeli Knesset was illuminated in the colors of the Australian flag in solidarity.[47]
- JPPI AI Analysis of World Leaders' Reactions.[48]
An AI-based review of official statements from leaders and governments in major countries assessed responses based on explicit recognition of the attack targeting Jews, occurring during Hanukkah, and references to terrorism or antisemitism, with higher weight for statements from heads of state.
Leaders in Argentina and Canada scored highest for clearly describing the incident as antisemitic terrorism against Jews during the Hanukkah holiday.
Australia's prime minister, along with responses from New Zealand and the United Kingdom, scored lower as initial statements avoided direct mentions of Jews, antisemitism, or Hanukkah, though clarifications followed amid criticism.
Muslim and Arab countries ranked lowest, typically issuing statements from foreign ministries rather than leaders, often framing condemnations generally against violence without acknowledging the antisemitic targeting of Jews; no Muslim country leader issued a personal response. Peace treaty partners Egypt and Jordan followed this pattern.
The term "terrorism" appeared most frequently in statements, followed by "antisemitism" and "Jews." Argentina's president uniquely mentioned Israel, criticizing Australia's Palestinian state recognition as contributing to an enabling climate.
Democratic countries mostly had heads of state respond directly, underscoring the event's perceived severity.
- Oprah Winfrey was criticized for not mentioning antisemitism or Jews in her condolence post.[49]
- US Congress members affirmed support and urged stronger antisemitism measures.[50]
- Wikipedians.
Outrageous: aftet all, Wikipedia (organized biased) editors "debated" classifying the Uslamic Hannukah Massacre as 'terrorism' versus a shooting and whether to name perpetrators. Deborah Lipstadt, former U.S. special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism and professor of modern Jewish history and Holocaust studies at Emory University, stated that if editors are actually trying to characterize the attack merely as a “shooting” on Wikipedia, then that’s “hardly a surprise. “Just Wikipedia being true to itself when it concerns Israel, Jews, antisemitism,” she stated. 'The same coordinated clique of Wikipedians that promoted Pallyweid and amplified genocidal Hamas narratives through its allied Turkey/Qatar/Iran-linked, unreliable sources is now sabotaging factual coverage of the Islamic Hanukkah Massacre.'[51][52]
- Arab "Palestinians" reaction:
Hero of Bondi Beach terror attack called a "traitor". The Arab Syrian-Australian, Ahmed al-Ahmed, who disarmed a gunman during the Bondi massacre, is vilified by Palestinians for saving Jewish lives. Online comments from Arab Palestinian communities range from a minority supportive to some even threatening.[53]
- PBS Newshour's Amna Nawaz downplays the Islamist Hanukkah massacre as a mundane "shooting".[54]
- Controversy arose after Richmond, California Mayor Eduardo Martinez shared social media content spreading the lie the attack was a “false flag” operation. The mayor later deleted the posts and issued apologies following widespread public and political criticism. Yet, his oreviiys rationalization of genocidal Hamas, it's atrocities was recalled.[55]
- The UK inacted a new ruling forbidding the violent hateful slogan 'globalize the Intifada,' and arrest were made immediately.[56]
Public Debate and International Reactions
The attack intensified debate over antisemitism, political speech, and public safety in Australia, Britain, and the United States. Editorials and political leaders argued that slogans historically linked to violence should not be treated as protected political expression.[57]
Iranian citizens
Many Iranians expressed solidarity with Israel and the Jewish community on social media using a specific hashtag, condemning the Iranian regime as a source of global terror and instability, while urging stronger action against it. which is connected to al-Qaeda.[58]
Significance
The Bondi Beach Hanukkah massacre was the deadliest antisemitic attack in Australian history and the country’s worst mass shooting in nearly three decades. Jewish organizations worldwide cited the attack as evidence of the dangers posed by unchecked antisemitic incitement and vowed to continue public Jewish observance despite security threats.[7]
Funerals and Community Mourning
Funerals began for victims, starting with Rabbi Eli Schlanger, a married father of five described as a compassionate spiritual leader and massive loss to the Jewish nation.[59]
Hundreds attended the heavily secured service amid ongoing shock, with eulogies emphasizing his purity, sincerity, commitment to others, and calls for resilience and unity against terror.
Additional funerals followed for other victims, including a young girl, under tight security as the community sought solidarity.
