49 mortos em ataques a mesquitas na Nova Zelândia

By Duncan Mil

March 15, 2019 - Atiradores abriram fogo contra os fiéis de sexta-feira em duas mesquitas de Christchurch, na Nova Zelândia, matando muitos devotos, no que parece ser a maior matança de sempre no país.

A man in his late twenties was charged with murder and will appear in court on Saturday morning, police confirmed.

Two other men and one woman were detained nearby and firearms seized, Police Commissioner Mike Bush said.

The gunman appeared to have live-streamed footage of his rampage to Facebook, filmed with a head-mounted camera. The footage appeared to show him firing indiscriminately at men, women, and children from close range inside the Al-Noor mosque.
