I am horrified to hear about the events at Bondi Junction this afternoon.

I am making immediate arrangements to return to Sydney.

I want to thank NSW Police, emergency services and first responders and the community for their bravery in the face of this shocking incident.

[Anthony Albanese @AlboMP]

I have been briefed by the AFP on the devastating events at Bondi Junction.

Tragically, multiple casualties have been reported and the first thoughts of all Australians are with those affected and their loved ones.

Australians in Lebanon should leave now, while commercial flights remain available.

If armed conflict increases, it could affect wider areas of #Lebanon and close Beirut airport.

The Australian Government may not be able to assist you to leave.
