At least 10 to 12 people are reported to have died in the Bondi Beach shooting, including one of the two gunmen.
Current death toll
Different major outlets are giving slightly different confirmed numbers as updates come in, but they consistently report a death toll in the low teens. Several Australian and international news sources, as well as the incident’s encyclopedia entry, state that 12 people were killed in total, including one of the shooters.
Why numbers differ
Early reports from police and media put the deaths at 9 or 10, then were revised upward as more victims were confirmed. Live blogs and rolling coverage still sometimes say “at least” 10 or 11 dead, but the most up‑to‑date consolidated figures point to 12 fatalities overall, one of them a gunman.
