My thoughts and condolences - along with the rest of London - are with everyone affected by the horrific attack at Bondi Beach, Australia today. The Met Police are increasing their visibility in our Jewish communities ahead of any Chanukah events.

I am deeply shocked by the terror attack in #Sydney - an act of hatred on the first day of #Hanukkah that is directed against Jewish communities everywhere. My heart goes out to the families of those murdered, the victims and the Jewish community. @AussenMinDE
