In October, Rabbi Schlanger – whose family hasidentified him as one of those killed in today’s shooting- spoke tothe Australian Jewish News outlet,externalafter the attack on the Heaton Park Synagogue in Manchester.

Schlanger, who told the outlet that his great uncle Leslie had been the rabbi of the synagogue for more than 35 years, was asked if he was worried about a similar attack happening in Australia.

Schlanger replied that he put his “full trust in Hashem that nothing will happen”.

Key Highlights

A nearly 11-minute continuous video, filmed from about 50 metres away, reveals how the attack on the Hanukkah celebration unfolded and how police and bystanders responded.

It’s unclear how soon the recording began after the attack started, but it opens with one gunman already on the footbridge between Campbell Parade and Archer Park while the second, in distinctive white trousers and a backpack, shoots at a fleeing person.

The pair then direct sustained fire towards the event. The attacker on the bridge fires almost continuously, occasionally repositioning a spare long-barrelled gun at his feet. He descends the bridge stairs towards Archer Park only once, and for less than ten seconds, before returning to his elevated position. In the nearly six minutes before he is shot, he pauses only to reload and to threaten people who stray too close on Campbell Parade.

Key Highlights

The second attacker crosses the bridge and moves towards a tree roughly 30 metres from the Hannukah gathering. He continues firing untilseparate verified footage shows him being disarmed by a bystanderand he returns to the bridge, picking up the spare weapon.

A police vehicle passes within the first 22 seconds of the video, and there are sirens sounding throughout, but after two minutes, witnesses can be heard shouting ‘Where are the cops?’

It’s more than four minutes into the video before incoming shots targeting the attackers strike the bridge. About 30 seconds later,the attacker in white trousers is hit first and collapses. About a minute later the remaining gunman is also shot, drawing cheers from onlookers.

Key Highlights

The aftermath is chaos. People run onto the bridge despite shouted warnings, some attacking the injured gunmen and clashing with each other.

The first police officer steps onto the bridge after seven minutes, closely followed by others who work to restrain bystanders and clear the scene. Police vehicles arrive, and in the final minute the camera turns briefly towards the Hanukkah event where people are tending to victims.

Drone footage shared on social media platform X appears to show the attackers on a bridge.

Key Highlights

One can be seen firing shots. Another lies still on the bridge and does not appear to be moving.

Earlier on Sunday, police said one gunman had been killed while a second suspect was in a critical condition.
