London Bridge Terror: Second Aussie dead in London attack

FOREIGN Minister Julie Bishop has confirmed a second Australian has been killed in the London Bridge terror attack.

Ms Bishop announced the death in a statement today.

She did not name the second victim, but it is believed to be Brisbane nanny Sara Zelenak.

South Australian nurse Kirsty Boden was last night named as the first Australian killed in the attack.

“We continue to work with the United Kingdom authorities who have asked that we await official confirmation of the identities of the victims, and for the families to be officially notified, before we release their names,” Ms Bishop said.

“The Australian Government has remained in close contact with the families who have requested privacy.”
