Bondi Beach attack victim Eva Geller dies a year later
Ninety-year-old Eva Geller, who survived the Holocaust as a child, has died in hospital nearly a year after being shot during the Bondi Beach terror attack.
Eva Geller, 90, died in hospital following complications from injuries sustained during the antisemitic shooting at a Hanukkah festival at Bondi Beach on 14 December. She had been in and out of hospital throughout the year receiving treatment, recently returning after developing an infection before suffering a fatal stroke. Community leaders and political figures expressed deep sorrow over her passing. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and New South Wales Premier Chris Minns offered tributes, highlighting how her life was permanently altered by the act of terror. Fifteen people died during the attack, and forty others were injured when two gunmen opened fire. Police and court proceedings regarding the shooting remain ongoing as authorities await further coroner advice.
