Jewish Australians reveal lived experiences of antisemitism

The first public hearings for the Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion have begun. The Royal Commission was established about month after the Bondi Beach terror attack, in which 15 people were killed at a Hanukkah event in December 2025. Families of the victims of Bondi terror attacks and Jewish community leaders took to the stand to share their lived experiences of antisemitism. And a warning, this story contains pictures that some viewers may find upsetting. SBS News is Australia's trusted news source for the latest news from Australia and across the world.
