A woman who was shot during the Bondi beach terror attack has died in hospital almost ۱۲ months after the massacre.
The ۹۰-year-old woman had been in and out of hospital this year for treatment of injuries sustained during the attack on ۱۴ December, a senior Jewish community source said on Friday.
The elderly woman had recently returned to hospital after developing an infection, where she died after having a stroke, the source said.
Her funeral was scheduled to take place on Monday. A family spokeperson requested “privacy during this difficult time”.
Fifteen people died after Naveed Akram, ۲۴, and his father, ۵۰-year-old Sajid Akram, opened fire at the Hanukkah festival at Bondi beach on ۱۴ December last year. Forty people were injured.

Sajid was shot dead by police at the scene. Naveed has been charged with ۷۸ offences, including ۱۵ counts of murder and one count of committing a terrorist act that investigators allege may have been “inspired by Isis”. He remains before the courts.
