“She was running, happy, and the next second I saw before my eyes how she was lying on the ground. I just can’t explain how this happened.” This is the story of Valentyna, mother of 10-year-old Matilda, the youngest victim of the Bondi Beach attack in Sydney, Australia.
“I wrapped my shirt around (Matilda) and I was talking to her because she was in shock; she was like, ‘It’s hard to breathe.’ I held her and said, “Calm down, please, please.” »
The December 14 shooting was the worst attack in Australia in almost 30 years. There were 15 deaths, and one of the suspected shooters also died. The case is being investigated for an act of terrorism targeting the Jewish community.
