Authorities begin clearing flowers, candles, letters and other items placed by the public at the site of a terror attack targeting the Jewish community at Bondi Beach last week.

The tributes will be preserved for display at the Sydney Jewish Museum and the Australian Jewish Historical Society, authorities say.

Fifteen people were killed when two terrorists opened fire at a Hanukkah event.

Thirteen people remain in hospital, including four in critical but stable condition, health officials say.
