Christchurch attack News
Australia's Brenton Tarrant, 28, opened fire at two mosques full of worshippers attending Friday prayers at New Zealand's Christchurch, killing at least 50 people while injuring dozens.
In the wake of the dastardly attack on innocent devotees at Mosques in New Zealand's Christchurch, PM Jacinda Ardern met the families of the terror attack victims while donning a black headscarf or hijab.
Richard Peters, the attorney assigned to represent Tarrant, confirmed to local media that he had been sacked.
Eyewitnesses say a second attack by the gunman was partly thwarted by Abdul Aziz, 48, who was born in Afghanistan.
The Indian mission put out on its official Twitter handle the names of the five Indian nationals -- Maheboob Khokhar, Ramiz Vora, Aarif Vora, Ansi Alibava and Ozair Kadir.
The shooting attacks took place on two Christchurch mosques with one gunman -- identified as an Australian extremist -- apparently live streaming the assault that triggered the lockdown of the city.
