Brother of Wounded Bondi Medic Says Government Offered No Support

He says the family has received no help since the Hanukkah shooting that killed 15 people.

Overview

  • He said the Prime Minister did not attend the slain rabbi’s funeral and that officials have not contacted the family, and authorities have not publicly responded to his claims.
  • Doctors and 9News reports indicate an emergency radio on Super’s vest absorbed a bullet that likely saved his life.
