unprecedented violence has prompted the government to commit to changing gun control laws my understanding is he held a category i.v. gun license and again i prefer my advice currently is that he under the gun license was able to legally acquired the gun said he held they will give you an indication of why we need to change. the national threat level has been raised from low to high as police politicians and the public come to terms with the worst and most shocking attack they've ever experienced. as the forensic work is completed the size of the police cordon around el nor mosque is reduced those who came here to pay their respects to the dead made sure that hundreds of floral tributes would not be left behind ultimately people want to be able to mourn right at the gates of the elmore mosque which is still around two hundred meters beyond the cordon the police are still working there still trying to piece together exactly what happened and more broadly how this was possible here in new zealand when hey al jazeera

christchurch well another of our correspondents in christchurch is andrew thomas and he's been hearing the stories from some of the survivors as to how they escaped after the violent frenzy the flowers all day on saturday people came to lay them in tribute to the dead and then stand whisper and weep. among those gathered with survivors and their stories on one fiji. great british t.v. started his. and he had just gone for three four minutes. when he heard the shots. and noises coming near so then i decided to do all trade and jump on my wife try to support his best friend sister linda and when she tried to talk shit like that. one of coming you know on that and my

wife it's injured here and so i wanted to go to linda and linda it's like one of my friend knows he is from india no it was him run it was a short one blood on his shoulder so i was holding him and then the gun gunmen the gun through the window and shot him while he was on my level his shooting couple of shots in the head he was a teen he pull of the. bullet or when he finished the bullet he left of the. way. friday's attacks were targeted at migrants and muslims but their impact has been to unite all new zealanders in horror and sadness some echoed the prime minister's call for urgent action on guns i think we should ban all guns in new zone dannie people today have guns is a place in the armed forces to receive be obey and it does mean of

a saying gan or well who weren't there days dinham and got the hanes on all guns or that it should be all been those who came to pay tribute saw the police working nearby they saw the hearses to arriving and leaving regularly collecting bodies from the al nor mosque this tribute has grown steadily over the course of saturday hundreds of people have been down here to stand in quiet contemplation there are of course very serious questions still to be answered but there's also grief and solidarity to express after thomas al-jazeera postures or yahoo malam our correspondent has more now from the australian city of grafton that's where the suspect brenton tyrant girl up. this is a community in shock tyrant spent the first twenty years of his life in grafton it's a sleepy regional town in country new south wales and we spoke with the arch dane

of the anglican church here and he said that. the community can't believe that one of their own could be involved in an attack like this distressed parishioners have been calling in all day on saturday asking what it is they can do about the attack the we also spoke with the deputy mayor and he says that this community is one that has fallen on hard times recently economically with the loss of industry and now has to contend with the fact that is going to be associated with the attack in christ church on sunday there will be a number of church services where the community will come together will be a lot of soul searching but also a show of support for the victims in christchurch well the issue of gun possession of course is now a major priority in new zealand priyanka go looks at new zealand's lowell's these are the guns brenton tyrant the man charged with the crisis killings showed

the world before friday's indiscriminate killings inside to most talented obtained a gun license and twenty seventeen and belong to a gun club where he practiced on the shooting range there an estimated one point five million firearms in a country of less than five million people gun owners need a license and moscow to background checks and safety training but once they have a license there is no restriction on the number of weapons making it difficult for authorities to track them. there is a restriction on the type of weapons though military style guns automatics and handguns require a special license and must be registered new zealand is a country where gun crimes are so rare the police don't routinely carry firearms but some analysts think friday's killings may lead to more public scrutiny of the

existing laws what happened was completely unexpected but this is going to be a catalyst for change because often for countries to change the firearms both you need a magnitude of being like this and this may be that event we know with some of the far around but about ninety five percent of the firearms are untraceable and this instant it's a particular problem because the man seems to have got the firearms lawfully new zealand's gun laws will last amended nine hundred ninety two in response to the killing of thirteen people in our romana by a man armed with military style weapons neighboring australia now has some of the world's strictest rules they too were in response to a mosque shooting where a gunman killed thirty five people and tasmania in one thousand nine hundred six a month earlier a man in the u.k. killed sixty schoolchildren with handguns that prompted the government there to impose strict gun laws now friday's attacks is forcing the new zealand government

to rethink its gun laws undoubtedly new zealanders will question how someone could have come to have been in position of weapons of this nature. one of the issues we're facing is that. the guns that were used in this case appears to have being modified a challenge the government says it would respond to priyanka gupta al jazeera well the prime minister has been receiving messages of condolence from around the world including from the us president donald trump. i spoke with donald trump this morning he sought to costa rica he very much wish for his condolences to be passed on to new zealand he asked what offer of support the united states could spread wide my message was sympathy and love for all muslim communities but to the surprise of some president trump play down the threat posed by white

supremacists i think it's a small group of people that have very very serious problems i guess if you look at what happened in new zealand perhaps that's a case i don't know enough about it yet they're just learning about the person and the people involved but it's certainly a terrible thing terrible thing to have a news hour and the afghan special forces have been sent to help hundreds of soldiers who've been besieged by the taliban around seven hundred troops are surrounded him bag this province that's on the border with turkmenistan they took refuge after the taliban overran a dozen checkpoints on friday afghan forces have been battling the taliban in this specific region for almost two weeks now thirty soldiers have been killed and forty have been taken hostage. un forensic teams are started to exceed bodies from mass graves around the town of sin jar in northern iraq it's thought that more than
