Japanese Embassy in Australia Issues Terrorism Warning After Bondi Beach Attack

The Embassy of Japan in Australia is urging caution regarding a terrorist incident at Bondi Beach in Sydney.

According to media reports, 16 people were killed in a shooting that targeted the Jewish religious festival “Hanukkah” held at Bondi Beach on December 14. Of the two suspects, one was shot dead and the other was taken into custody.

In Australia, there was an attempted bombing targeting Jewish people in January, as well as an attack on an Israeli cuisine restaurant and an arson attack on a synagogue in July. As tensions are expected to rise again around “Hanukkah” from approximately December 24 to January 1, and around “Passover (Pesach)” from approximately April 1 to 8, Japanese nationals are being requested to avoid, as much as possible, approaching synagogues, Jewish-affiliated commercial facilities, restaurants, and gathering places.
