Albanese announced a national gun buyback scheme in response to the recent mass shooting in Bondi Beach, aiming to remove surplus, newly-banned, and illegal firearms as Australia currently has more guns than during the Port Arthur massacre. Authorities will collect and destroy hundreds of thousands of firearms, reflecting on the need to combat rising anti-Jewish hate and violence in the country. A national day of reflection will be held on Sunday to honor the victims, with the community at Bondi Beach already coming together in solidarity through gestures like swimming and surfing in memory of the tragedy.
