A brutal knife attack on an Israeli in Bondi resulted in his death following emergency surgery.  Two fellow Israelis have been charged with the murder.

Hernan Guelman, age 36, was beaten and stabbed multiple times by Dror and Ezra Salah.  The brothers surrendered to police and a third man is still wanted for questioning.

Within a two week time period the Sydney Jewish community was the victim of two major attacks on local synagogues as well as a series of smaller anti-Semitic incidents.  The latest attack was on the synagogue in Parramatta.

Concrete bricks were thrown into the stained glass windows of the shul as well as into the windows of two cars parked on the property.  At the time of the attack, Rabbi Yosef Wernick, his wife, and six children were in their home, located adjacent to the synagogue.
