Bondi victim’s daughter warns of ‘unprecedented’ hostility

Among the witnesses who gave evidence yesterday was Sheina Gutnick, the daughter of Bondi Beach terror attack victim Reuven Morrison.

She warned of “unprecedented” levels of antisemitism after the Hamas attack in Israel on October 7, 2023.

Gutnick told the commission she had “received and seen hundreds of comments … that I should have been killed in the Bondi attack, calls to kill Israelis, [and] comments celebrating violence against Jews”.

She said she had also seen claims that attacks against the Jewish community “are false flags staged by Jews themselves for attention and sympathy”.
