Mourners Gather For Rabbi Killed at Bondi Beach

Hundreds of mourners gathered in a Bondi synagogue for the funeral of Rabbi Eli Schlanger on Wednesday (December 17), a few blocks away from the beach where he was gunned down at a Chanukah festival three days ago. Schlanger was killed at the "Chanukah by the Sea" event organised by his Chabad of Bondi where he was an assistant rabbi. Fifteen people were killed in the mass shooting allegedly carried out by a father and son carrying rifles. Schlanger, 41, recently became a father for the fifth time. He was born in Britain but had lived in Sydney for the past 18 years.
