Police are responding to "shocking and distressing" scenes at Sydney’s Bondi Beach after reports of multiple shots being fired.
New South Wales police said two people are in custody at Bondi Beach but added the operation is ongoing.
"We continue to urge people to avoid the area. Please obey ALL police directions. Do not cross police lines," the force said on social media.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the incident is "shocking and distressing" and that emergency services are on the scene working to save lives.
"I saw at least 10 people on the ground and blood everywhere," 30-year-old local Harry Wilson, who witnessed the shooting, told the Sydney Morning Herald.
