|December 16, 2025
AUSTRALIA VOWED STRICTER gun laws on Monday as it began mourning victims of its worst mass shooting in almost 30 years, in which police accused a father-andson duo of killing 15 people at a Jewish celebration at Sydney's famed Bondi Beach.
The incident has raised questions whether Australia's gun laws, among the toughest in the world, need overhaul, with police saying the older suspect had held a firearms license since 2015, along with six registered weapons.
