– My wife and I were completely shocked and horrified when we heard about the tragic knife attack in Bondi. We sympathize with the families and loved ones of those who were brutally killed during such a senseless attack, says the British king in a statement.
King Charles is the head of state of Australia, which is part of the British Commonwealth. He has been receiving treatment for cancer since the start of the new year.
Six people were killed and eight critically injured after a man attacked random customers at a shopping center in Sydney, Australia on Saturday.
Australian police say the perpetrator, who was in his 40s, has been shot dead. The police searched the shopping center for several perpetrators, but have concluded that there was only one. They do not suspect that it is a terrorist attack.
