Doctors for the Environment Australia is shocked and saddened by the horrific attack at Bondi Beach on Sunday.

We offer our sympathies to the victims and the families of those affected by this heart-breaking tragedy, to the Jewish community and everyone who is impacted.

We stand with you during this period of grief and mourning.

The attack day marks a very dark day for the Jewish community and for all Australians. We condemn this senseless violence--there is no place for attacks and discrimination on the Jewish community and on any faith-based group.

DEA acknowledges the first responders and medical staff who provided assistance and support, and to those who are continuing to provide care. Your dedication is crucial in emergencies and a reminder that your vital work never stops.

DEA affirms that peace is a human right and that violence is never the answer.
