Commissioner Lanyon is now asked about the weapons used.

He says it is “way too early” to give any description of the firearms, other than to say they were long arms.

It is not yet possible to say where the firearms came from and how they came into the attackers’ possession, he adds.

Lanyon says police located a vehicle in Campbell Parade in Bondi, which they believe has “several improvised explosive devices”.

Lanyon says a rescue bomb disposal unit is there at the moment working on the vehicle.

As we just reported, Lanyon says that the explosive device in the car is “linked to the deceased offender”.
