“If he was a human I would ask why?” The Christchurch survivor facing the gunman that tried to kill him

In 2019 year the single largest massacre in New Zealand was perpetrated by a 28-year-old man from Grafton NSW. His sentencing is currently underway, with Christchurch’s High Court hearing from surviving victims and their families. The man has plead guilty to 51 counts of murder, 40 counts of attempted murder and one charge of committing a terrorist act.

Our guest, Hisham Al Zarzour, is one of more than 60 people who survived the attack and who’s victim impact statement will be read to the court and to the gunman who killed 51 of his fellow worshippers.

In today's news headlines:

  • Hundreds of travelers moved from Sydney Travelodge which was found unfit for hotel quarantine
