A video clip showed a passerby hindering one of the attackers and disarming him during the attack in which 12 people were killed and more than 10 others were injured, today Sunday, on the famous Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia, and the attack targeted a crowd during a celebration of the Jewish holiday "Hanukkah" (Festival of Lights).
The person who disarmed one of the attackers on the beach is a Muslim named Ahmed Al-Ahmed, and he was hit by two bullets and is currently undergoing treatment.
Footage circulating on social media sites shows a man wearing a white shirt in a parking lot running towards a man wearing a dark shirt holding a rifle, then pouncing on the armed man from behind, disarming the rifle from him and pointing it at him.
Then the man with the dark shirt appeared in the video clip losing his balance, retreating towards a bridge where another armed man was, and the man who attacked him then placed the weapon on the ground.
The video was verified through reliable footage showing the same people. It was also verified that the armed men in that clip are the two who were seen surrounded by police in confirmed photos, based on their clothes.
One of the suspected attackers was killed and the other was injured and is in critical condition.
The clip of the attack on the armed man spread quickly on social media, where people praised the man's bravery, saying that his action may have saved many lives.
One user on the X platform said "This Australian saved countless lives by disarming one of the terrorists on Bondi Beach. He is a hero".
