Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahuascribed the fatal mass shooting in Sydney to Australia’s call for a Palestinian state, saying he warned ahead of the attack that the move “pours fuel on antisemitic fire.”
Twelve people, including an Israeli citizen, were killed in Australia’s worst terrorist attack when gunmen opened fire on Jews who had gathered to celebrate the first day of Hanukkah at Sydney’s iconic Bondi Beach on Sunday evening.
