What began as an ordinary Saturday afternoon for the hundreds of people at Westfield Bondi Junction in Sydney's eastern suburbs turned into a nightmare survivors will never forget.

PM Anthony Albanese has praised the actions of police and frontline workers, saying Australians should be proud of the level of professionalism shown.

He says there will be a time for Australia to have a "considered response" to any security lessons that need to be learned from the incident, and says the NSW Police investigation will be comprehensive and "nothing will not be looked at."
