At least 16 people have died, including a child, following a terrorist attack apparently targeted at a Hanukah celebration at Sydney’s Bondi beach on Sunday.

It is Australia’s worst mass shooting in 29 years.

A police statement on Monday said 14 people died at the scene, with two more dying in hospital overnight. They said 40 people were injured.

The child who died, a 10-year-old girl, was on of four children taken to Sydney Children’s Hospital following the attack.

A 40-year-old man also died in hospital.

Those killed range in age from 10 to 87, police said.
