'Our gun laws will change': New Zealand's prime minister vows reform in wake of mass shooting at two mosques
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern vowed gun reform after the mass shooting at two mosques in the city of Christchurch killed 49 people and wounded dozens more the day before.
Ardern said at a news conference that she was advised that the gunman had five firearms — two semi-automatic weapons, two shotguns and a lever-action firearm — and that he had a gun license acquired in November 2017.
She noted that there have been attempts to change the nation's gun laws in the past, most recently in 2017, but said "now is the time for change."
