The country endured its deadliest mass killing in nearly 30 years, with the massacre of 15 people this weekend during a Hanukkah celebration on Bondi Beach.

The daughter of one of the victims of Sunday's Bondi Beach terror attack told CBS News on Monday that her father was "shot dead for being Jewish," and she now believes Australia is not a safe home for Jewish people.

A troubling rise in antisemitic attacks and incidents in recent years have left some feeling anger after the kind of deadly attack they felt was sure to happen.

As the eight-day Hanukkah holiday continues, security has been reexamined and even strengthened at some local synagogues and public events.

A day after the deadliest domestic terror attack in Australia’s history, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese faced criticism he didn’t do enough to combat rising attacks on the Jewish community nor swiftly enact recommendations from the nation’s antisemitism envoy released five months ago.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the search of a seized vehicle found “the presence of Islamic State flags.”

Taken together, they point to an alarming global surge in antisemitism. Security and law enforcement agencies in Australia, along with those in the UK and elsewhere, thwart many attacks, but must constantly review whether they could be doing more to protect Jewish communities.
