Locals organized a memorial at the site of the terrorist attack in Sydney.

Footage of a memorial organized by local residents near Bondi Beach in Sydney was made available to Izvestia on December 15. Citizens who are not indifferent to the tragedy bring flowers to the memorial in memory of the victims.

"People have organized a spontaneous memorial here at the crime scene near Bondi Beach and are bringing flowers here. The shooting has already killed 16 people, including a 10-year-old girl. Another 40 were injured and are in various hospitals in Sydney," said journalist Anna Fedorova.

She said that at the moment when the shooting started, people left their personal belongings on the beach and ran away. There were even parked cars nearby. Now the rescuers have taken valuables from the beach, and people can contact them to pick up their belongings.

A local resident named Joshua commented on the tragedy. In his opinion, the Australian authorities did not pay enough attention to countering ethnic hatred.

"I cannot stand by after this terrible attack on our Jewish community, so I am here to express my support. I just think there's so much hate right now, and the government is doing so little to combat hate speech in western Australia and Sydney, that this is just a consequence," he said.
