Mourners leave flowers outside a mall in Sydney on April 14, 2024, a day after a deadly knife attack there.
ustralian police are examining why a lone assailant who stabbed six people to death in a busy Sydney shopping mall and injured more than a dozen others targeted women while avoiding men, a police commissioner said on Monday.

The only male killed was Faraz Tahir, a Pakistani refugee who worked at the mall as a security guard. Tahir had not been armed.Webb expected the coroner would also address the question of whether security guards at the mall, which is one of Australia’s largest, should be armed.

The baby’s condition improved overnight Sunday from critical to serious, health authorities said.Flags on government buildings around Australia flew at half-staff on Monday as a day of national mourning was declared to honor the victims.
