‘We must fight hate’: Minns urges action as PM apologises to Jewish community

Thank you for reading our live coverage of the memorial to victims of the Bondi attack at the Sydney Opera House on today’s national day of mourning. We’ll be back tomorrow with more breaking news.

Here’s a quick recap of what happened today:

• Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has issued an emotional apology to the Jewish community and vowed to fight antisemitism at the national day of mourning service on Tuesday night.
• Australia held a minute’s silence at 7pm to honour the victims of the terrorist attack at Bondi Beach.
• Nationals leader David Littleproud has announced a shock split from the Liberals and said the Coalition is “untenable”, leaving the opposition in disarray after a chaotic week that culminated in the Nationals breaking with the Liberals over Labor’s hate speech laws.
• The Australia unemployment rate has fallen from 4.3 to 4.1 per cent, which Treasurer Jim Chalmers said is the “lowest average unemployment of any government in the last half-century or so”.

• Several people are missing across the North Island after a tropical storm brought huge rainfall to the top of New Zealand, with a state of emergency in effect.
