Twelve people were killed when gunmen opened fire at a Jewish holiday celebration at Sydney’s Bondi Beach on Sunday.

Australian officials described as a targeted anti-semitic attack.

One of the suspected gunmen was also killed, and a second is in critical condition.

Authorities said far more people would have been killed were it not for a bystander, identified by local media as fruit shop owner Ahmed al-Ahmed, 43, who was filmed charging a gunman from behind, grappling with him and wresting a rifle from his hands.
