A woman who was shot during the Bondi beach terror attack has died in hospital almost 12 months after the massacre.

The 90-year-old woman had been in and out of hospital this year for treatment of injuries sustained during the attack on 14 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, 24, and his father, 50-year-old Sajid Akram, opened fire at the Hanukah festival at Bondi beach on 14 December last year. Forty people were injured.
