WATCH: Australia PM Malcolm Turnbull Joins Hanukkah Celebrations

(ABC News) – Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull danced with the Jewish community at a Synagogue in Sydney, as part of Chanukah celebrations. Mr Turnbull and wife Lucy joined the gathering at Central Synagogue to mark the seventh night of Chanukah, also known as Hanukkah.

“As the candles of the Chanukah are lit each night we are reminded of the enduring resilience and courage of the Jewish people in the face of the darkest adversity,” Mr Turnbull wrote on Facebook.

“Australia would not be the remarkable nation it is, the most successful multicultural society in the world, without the extraordinary contribution of the Jewish community.”
