A bystander who wrestled a gun from one of the alleged attackers during a mass shooting at Bondi Beach has been identified as Ahmed al Ahmed, whose refugee parents had just arrived from Syria, according to Australian officials and media.

The suspects were a father and son, ages 50 and 24, authorities have said. The older man, whom state officials named as Sajid Akram, was shot dead.

SYDNEY — Hundreds remained on Bondi Beach long after the sun had set Tuesday. Many stood silently beneath the waning moon, police helicopters whirring overhead. Some laid bouquets of flowers, which local stores were giving out for free. All were there to pay tribute to the 15 people killed at a Hanukkah celebration on Sunday.

A man accused of perpetrating Australia’s deadliest mass shooting in three decades will be charged later on Wednesday, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said, as the funerals of the Jewish victims of Sunday's attack began.

The alleged father and son gunmen who killed at least 15 people in a mass shooting at Australia's Bondi Beach may have been inspired by the ISIS terrorist organization.

The victims of a mass shooting at Sydney's Bondi Beach range from a 10-year-old girl with a gentle soul to an 87-year-old Holocaust survivor.

Australian officials say the Bondi Beach gunmen carried bombs, ISIS flags and had recently traveled to the Philippines, confirming the massacre was ISIS-inspired.

Fashion designer Pip Edwards shared her account of getting caught in the Dec. 14 shooting in Sydney in an Instagram post on Monday, Dec. 15.

For many, official promises to stamp out the “evil scourge” of antisemitism and consider further tightening gun control measures come too late.
