SYDNEY: Australia will hold a royal commission inquiry into the mass shooting that killed 15 people at Bondi Beach, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Thursday, as he faced public demands for answers.
“I´ve repeatedly said that our government´s priority is to promote unity and social cohesion. And this is what Australia needs to heal,” he told reporters.
Sajid Akram and his son Naveed allegedly targeted Jews attending a Hannukah celebration near the beach in an ISIS-inspired attack on December 14, the nation´s worst mass shooting for 30 years.
