Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has condemned Saturday’s mass stabbing as a “horrific act of violence”.
The incident took place at the Westfield Bondi Junction Shopping Centre in Sydney’s east.
At least six people were killed and a number critically wounded, including a nine-month-old baby, when a man attacked shoppers with a knife before he was shot and killed by police.
Speaking in Canberra alongside Australian Federal Police (AFP) Commissioner Reece Kershaw Saturday evening, Albanese said the “devastating scenes” were “beyond words or understanding”.
