Bondi Beach Aftermath: Australian PM to invite Israeli Prez
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Tuesday said his government would invite Israel's President to visit, after a mass shooting in Sydney targeting the Jewish community. "Prime Minister Albanese advised President (Isaac) Herzog that, upon the recommendation of the Australian government, the Governor-General of Australia will issue an invitation in accordance with protocol to President Herzog to visit Australia as soon as possible," said a post on the leader's X account. Gunmen killed 15 people when they targeted a Hanukkah event on Bondi Beach, in what authorities have said was an antisemitic terrorist attack.

The Israeli President's office confirmed his Tuesday phone call with Albanese.

No date though, has been finalised for the visit.
