Jeremy Leibler, the President of the Zionist Federation of Australia, has described a recent attack as an attempt to intimidate Jews simply for their visible Jewish identity. He emphasized the need for action against such acts of antisemitism.

“In light of the Bondi incident and numerous recent threats nationwide, it’s crucial for Australia to view antisemitism as a pressing public safety issue rather than a minor community problem,” Leibler stated.
Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan has been updated on the car firebombing incident, which involved a vehicle associated with spreading Hanukkah and holiday joy. The community is understandably concerned that this could be an antisemitic act.
This attack follows a tragic event where two gunmen, influenced by Islamic State, opened fire during Hanukkah celebrations at Bondi Beach on December 14, resulting in 15 fatalities.
