Australian Police say there have been at least 10 people killed following a shooting near a Jewish gathering at Sydney’s Bondi Beach.
One shooter was killed while another is in custody.
Authorities say there is no longer an active threat but have urged people to avoid the area.
Police are reiterating that the public still needs to avoid Bondi Beach, despite the two shooters having been neutralised.
There is an ongoing bomb threat in the area, police say, and they are working to disarm what they’ve described as an IED, or improvised explosive device.
Police media have confirmed to the ABC that 10 people have died in this evening’s shooting at Bondi Beach, including one of the shooters and nine victims.
Twelve people were also injured, including multiple police officers responding to the incident.
A second shooter is among the injured, and is in custody.
Police said a short time ago there was no longer an active threat to the public with two people in custody.
But it is still very much an active scene with emergency services coming and going, with 16 people rushed to hospital so far.
Police have confirmed there have been multiple fatalities — the exact number is still being confirmed. (ABC)
