Summary
- Three women died in separate incidents across NSW on Saturday.

Three women tragically lost their lives in separate incidents across New South Wales on Saturday. The first incident occurred in Wagga Wagga around midday, where a 23-year-old woman was found with critical stab wounds and later died at the scene.
Later that evening, a woman in her 90s was fatally stabbed in her Bondi Beach unit. A 47-year-old man was subsequently arrested and charged with murder.
Just before 9:30pm, police responded to reports of a domestic violence incident at Mole River, where a 74-year-old woman was assaulted by a man attempting to steal a vehicle. Another woman, also in her 70s, was discovered deceased in a neighboring property.
Authorities believe the victims in each case were known to their alleged attackers. These events have prompted strong reactions, with calls for greater action to prevent violence against women.
