Sadly, it is emerging that several of the victims of the anti-Semitic terrorist attack on the Jewish community at Bondi Beach have connections - as migrants or as family members - to Ukraine.

I express Ukraine's sorrow about the aborrent terrorist attack on the Jewish and Bondi communities. This is violence aimed at ripping apart Australia and we stand in solidarity with the Aus people and authorities. Anti-semitism is an intl plague and cannot be aloud to succeed in its evil aims.
