Victims of mass killing at Bondi Junction to be honoured Picturesque Bondi Beach will be the fitting backdrop for a candlelit vigil to honour the victims of Australia’s worst mass killing in years. From 5.30pm hundreds of mourners are expected to gather to reflect and pay tribute to those killed during the attack. A first-time mother defending her baby, the daughter of a millionaire advertising guru and an on-duty security guard were among the six people killed in the attack.
Five of the six killed were women - Ashlee Good, 38, Dawn Singleton, 25, Jade Young, 47, Pikria Darchia, 55, and Yixuan Cheng, 27. Faraz Tahir, a 30-year-old refugee who fled persecution in his native Pakistan, was also killed. At least 12 others - including nine women - were taken to hospital after suffering stab wounds in the attack. Six people remain in hospital, including a nine-month-old baby girl. The vigil will begin with a minute’s silence in honour of those whose lives were lost.
