The recent attacks on the communities of Bondi and the clergy and congregation of Christ the Good Shepherd Church in Wakeley are deeply troubling.
These incidents have had a significant impact on the sense of safety and security in both the affected areas and communities across NSW.
My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families during this difficult time.
I also extend my gratitude to the police and ambulance services for their dedicated response under extremely challenging conditions.
In times like these, it's important to remain calm and united.
I stand with faith leaders in calling for peace and solidarity amidst these challenging times.
NSW stands as a shining example of multiculturalism. Our diverse communities are a pillar of strength to our great state.
