Shocking 

Adam Smyth is the 15th Victim of the Bondi Beach Massacre

Adam Smyth, a 50-year-old non-Jewish father of four, has been confirmed as one of the 15 victims killed in the Bondi Beach terrorist attack during a Hanukkah celebration. Caught in the crossfire while walking with his wife, Smyth’s death shows that antisemitic terror endangers the entire community.

A large Hanukkia is lit in central Jerusalem, during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah, on December 7, 2015. Hanukkah, also known as the Festival of Lights, is an eight-day Jewish holiday commemorating the rededication of the Holy Temple. The festival is observed by the kindling of the lights of a 'hanuckia'- a nine-branched candelabrum, with one additional light being lit on each night of the holiday.
