Famed Australian Rabbi killed in Bondi Beach massacre laid to rest: ‘The loss is unspeakable’


A famed Australian rabbi who was killed in the Bondi Beach terrorist attack just months after welcoming his newborn son was laid to rest at a tear-jerking funeral service on Tuesday.

Large crowds of mourners gathered to honor Rabbi Eli Schlanger, 41, at a packed service at the Chabad of Bondi, where he served as an assistant rabbi.

Schlanger was one of the 2,000 people in attendance at the event on Bondi Beach to mark the first night of Hanukkah on Sunday, when a father and son terrorist duo opened fire on the crowd — killing at least 15 people and wounding 40 others.
