2 Frenchmen arrested after pointing fake gun at synagogue-goers in Sydney
2026-07-05


The Times of Israel adds:
The synagogue’s Rabbi Yanky Berger tells congregants in an email after Shabbat that the suspects are “French nationals working as Uber Eats drivers,” who “have been charged with several offences.”

He says the fake firearm has been determined to be a water gun, and it was pointed toward the security guard who belongs to a local community security group (CSG).

“I want to reassure everyone that our CSG security team and NSW Police responded quickly and professionally. There is no ongoing threat, and we will keep the community informed should there be any further updates,” he says.

Double Bay is located in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, not far from Bondi Beach, which in December saw an antisemitic mass shooting at a Hanukkah event that left 15 people dead.
