…Jessica Rozen, another story of bravery…
Jessica Rozen ran, searching desperately for her three-year-old son as the shots rang out at Bondi beach on Sunday. Rozen had attended the Chanukah by the Sea event with her family when the terrorist attack began that evening, bringing a terrifying end to the day’s Jewish celebration of light. Her husband was running with their toddler when she noticed a little girl screaming. She lay on top of her until the shooting stopped and the girl’s dad came. Photos shared with Guardian Australia show Rozen, with blood in her hair, lying on top of a little girl in a pink shirt with colourful face paint.

Rabbi Eli Schlanger
Rabbi Eli Schlanger was confirmed as one of the victims in a heartbreaking post shared to social media by this first cousin Rabbi Zalman Lewis. In a heartfelt post, Rabbi Lewis wrote: 'My dear cousin, Rabbi Eli Schlanger, was murdered in today's terrorist attack in Sydney. 'He leaves behind his wife, young children, as well as my uncle and aunt, and his siblings. 'He was truly an incredible guy.' Rabbi Schlanger was the head of the Chabad mission in Bondi where he had served the community for nearly two decades. The British-born father-of-five was one of the organisers for the Chanukah by the Sea event allegedly targeted by the gunmen.

Rabbi Yakkov Levitan
Rabbi Yakkov Levitan has also been identified as another victim of the mass shooting. Rabbi Levitan served as a secretary of the Sydney Beth Din and worked at the BINA Centre, according to Chabad - a global organisation based in Brooklyn dedicated to sharing the Jewish faith and traditions around the world. While at the event, Rabbi Levitan was distributing tefillin - two small, black leather boxes containing Torah scrolls that are worn by male adult Jews committed to performing the Jewish rite.

Holocaust survivor Alex Kleytman

Reuven Morrison
Reuven Morrison, who served as an assistant at Bondi's Wellington Street synagogue, put himself in harm's way after meeting his friend Vladimir at the Chanukah event. An emotional Vladimir said he would have been caught up in the gunfire if he hadn't needed to find parking. 'I saw everything and now my best friend is dead. He died in front of me,' he told the Daily Mail. Vladimir was returning from the Chanukah celebration to sort out his car when the shooting began. 'I was leaving. I asked Reuven about what time to turn on the Chanukah lights and then I was walking away,' he told the Daily Mail. 'I'd walked about 50 metres when I heard the shots and I turned around and there was a Chinese lady and her child and I said 'get down!' and maybe that's what saved me too. 'People started running and I looked up and saw the guy shooting from the bridge above towards the Chanukah area. 'Then there was one detective over the other side who started firing at the shooter on the ground. 'There was more firing and then Reuven got hit. He was trying to get people to get down out of the way and then maybe disarm the shooter on the ground, he was walking towards him to fight him. 'But then he was shot – hit in the kidneys, I think. I was there when he died.'

French Jewish man Dan Elkayam
French Jewish man Dan Elkayam was also among the 15 people killed during the mass shooting. The French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot confirmed the young man's death on X on Monday. He wrote that Paris feels 'immense sadness' at the news, and is mourning 'with his family and loved ones, with the Jewish community and the bereaved Australian people'. The 27-year-old had moved to Australia to work as an engineer about a year ago, the Le Parisien newspaper reported.

A US billionaire has donated $99,999 (US$ 65,000; Ł49,000) to a "hero" who tackled one of the Bondi Beach gunmen and wrestled his weapon off him (the maximum online donation is $99,999).
Video footage shows the 43-year-old fruit shop owner running towards the gunman and seizing the weapon. He then turns the gun on attacker forcing him to retreat. A fundraiser created to raise funds for Ahmed Al Ahmed has raised close to $1million, according to GoFundMe. The top donation is from William Ackman, the CEO of Pershing Square Capital Management, who has praised the "brave hero" for saving lives on X. Ahmed's parents earlier said he was shot four or five times in the shoulder and is in hospital. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/ckgk391yzm7t

![]() The Conservatives have called on the Labour Party to return all donations from eco warrior Dale Vince, after his response to yesterday’s Bondi Beech attack sparked furious reactions. Commenting on the massacre, which appeared to be deliberately targeted at Jews celebrating Hanukah, the Ecotricity founder posted: “Commenting on the shootings in Australia today Netanyahu said - Antisemitism spreads when leaders stay silent. “Nothing to do with Isreal committing Genocide in Palestine then. Netanyahu wants antisemitism to be a thing, it validates him - he acts to make it so.” Mr Vince made no other comment on the shooting, that left over 15 dead including a Holocaust survivor. Amid furious backlash, the Tory Party’s chairman has now said Labour should return its funding from Mr Vince and condemn his comments. |

Labour MP Lola mcevoy who's last suggestion was to fine balaclava wearers Ł100, instead of trying to communicate with the balaclava wearing youths of Darlington has this to say about the terrorist murders of innocent jews.

Our governments are culpable. In Britain and in Australia, directly after 7th October massacre, Muslims were allowed to march chanting anti-Semitic messages and they've marched pretty much every week since. They've been protected by the police and applauded by the Left. Dale Vince, a well known buffoon, should be arrested and jailed, like Lucy Connolly was. But he won't be. And there are people everywhere who agree with him.
