Statement on behalf of Three Rivers District Council:
The horrific shooting which targeted the Jewish community at a Hanukkah event on Sydney's Bondi Beach is shocking and deeply upsetting. At this time, our collective thoughts are with all those families who are experiencing the most unbelievably painful loss through such utterly senseless violence and all those affected by it around the world. In times of darkness, we put our faith in the light of a brighter future.
