Anothe knife attack in Sydney: Bishop among several people stabbed during church service

Several people have been stabbed during a service at a church in Sydney.

A video online appears to show Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel being attacked during the service at the Christ the Good Shepherd church - barely 48 hours after an earlier mass stabbing attack in the city.

Kudos to the congregation for jumping in so quickly 👍👍👍#SydneyAttack https://t.co/9XnP8PZu4E
