At least 11 people were shot and killed Sunday in a targeted attack on a Jewish holiday celebration, to mark the start of Hanukkah, in Australia's Bondi Beach.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said two gunmen who killed 15 people at a Jewish holiday celebration were motivated by the Islamic State.

Police said around 1,000 people had attended the Jewish celebration, which was held in a small park off the beach.

Less than 48 hours after the deadly attack at Sydney's Bondi Beach that left more than a dozen dead, Australian authorities announced proposals for sweeping new gun laws.

SYDNEY (AP) — A father and son are suspected by officials to have killed 15 people on a popular Australian beach, shocking a country where gun violence is rare. The government on Monday, a day after the shootings, proposed tougher new gun laws amid criticism that officials didn’t take seriously enough a string of antisemitic attacks.

Australia's government on Wednesday revised the outlook for inflation sharply higher but it still added to its annual spending plans, leaving it up to monetary policy to lean against cost pressures in the economy.

AustralianSuper is recruiting for a rare chance to direct roughly A$400 billion ($265 billion) in global assets at the nation’s largest pension fund.

Jews are fearful of more violence and Muslims are wary of a backlash after the mass shooting at Bondi Beach killed 15. Can Australia steer its way toward stability?
