BMFF is deeply shocked and saddened by the horrific terrorist attack at Bondi Beach. Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and all those affected by this senseless act of violence.
We stand in unwavering solidarity with our Jewish community at this painful time. Acts of terror and hatred seek to divide us and spread fear, but they will not define who we are as a community/society.
As the festival of Chanukah reminds us, even the smallest light can overcome great darkness. We choose to let the meaning of Chanukah prevail — hope over fear, unity over hatred, and light over darkness.
Now, more than ever, the strength of our community matters. By coming together with compassion, courage, and mutual respect, we affirm our shared humanity and our commitment to stand against violence in all its forms. Together, we will conquer the darkness and ensure that love, solidarity, and justice endure.
BMFF remains committed to supporting our communities and upholding the values of peace, resilience, and unity.
This evening we came together and shared in the Chanukah lighting event at Hendon Town Hall, led by Chabad House of Hendon and the Mayor of the London Borough of Barnet Councillor Danny Rich.
