Police confirm that the death toll from today’s stabbing incident in Sydney rises to seven. PM Albanese appreciated the courage of the female officer who shot the attacker as she entered the very dangerous proceedings.
He said, ‘She is certainly a hero. There is no doubt that she saved lives through her actions. And it is a reminder that those people who wear the uniform are people who rush to danger, not away from it. And I give thanks to every, every one of them, for the actions that they’ve taken up to now and the actions that they will take over the coming days, which will be a difficult period as well. Thank you’.
Meanwhile, in a shocking turn of events, Australian police have confirmed reports of multiple stabbings at the bustling Westfield Bondi Junction mall complex in Sydney. The incident, which unfolded amidst a throng of Saturday afternoon shoppers, has prompted authorities to lock down the area, urging citizens to steer clear of the vicinity.
New South Wales Ambulance has informed media that one man has been fatally shot by the police, presumably one of the assailants involved in the attack. The motive behind the brutal assault remains elusive as investigators scramble to piece together the unfolding chaos.
Eyewitnesses recounted scenes of sheer panic as shoppers dashed for safety while law enforcement officials worked fervently to secure the premises. Some sought refuge within a nearby supermarket, where they remained sheltered for approximately an hour, gripped by fear and uncertainty.
