NYC Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani condemns Australia Hanukkah attack as "vile antisemitic terror" but stops short of condemning controversial "globalize the intifada" phrase.

For many, official promises to stamp out the “evil scourge” of antisemitism and consider further tightening gun control measures come too late.

As Hanukkah approaches, the Jewish community is gearing up for a series of festive events to celebrate. Here are 6 events to attend in metro Phoenix.

Hanukkah, one of the most widely observed Jewish holidays, begins Sunday, Dec. 14. Known as the festival of lights, Hanukkah is an eight-day holiday in the Jewish faith marked by the nightly lighting of candles.

Hanukkah celebrations across the world are turning into vigils for the 15 people killed in a deadly attack in Australia.

Australian leaders have promised to immediately overhaul already-tough gun control laws after a mass shooting targeted a Hanukkah celebration on Sydney’s Bondi Beach.

Following the terror attack targeting a Hanukkah event in Sydney this week, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar and Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar denounce terrorism as a “mutual threat” to both countries during a meeting in Jerusalem. Indian police have said that one of the terrorists was originally from Hyderabad.

The Jewish community in Pima County gathered to celebrate the second night of Hanukkah while mourning the victims of a targeted attack in Australia during the first night of the Jewish holiday.

Hanukkah (or Chanukah) is one of the world’s most widely celebrated Jewish festivals. The Bondi attacks’ timing on its first day is significant – and heartbreaking.

Sunday night marked the beginning of Hanukkah, and one city is gearing up to host a night of celebration for residents.
