Police and local media reports said the shooting began while some people were attending a Hanukkah party on the beach. At least 40 people were hospitalized.

Australia is vowing to enact tougher gun controls after a targeted Hanukkah shooting at Bondi Beach leaves 15 dead and many people injured.

The police found two homemade Islamic State flags in the car of the suspects, a 50-year-old man and his 24-year-old son.

For Australia’s tiny Jewish population, Bondi Beach was a refuge within a vast country that offered sanctuary to families fleeing a seething hate that killed six million of their kind within the lifetime of some of their oldest members.

N.Y., faced backlash on Monday after saying "go Bills" before addressing the deadly shooting in Sydney, Australia, during a press conference.
