🇳🇿 New Zealand bans assault weapons after mosque massacre | Al Jazeera English

Описание: New Zealand has banned the sale of assault rifles and semi-automatic weapons after the country's worst-ever attack, which killed 50 Muslims in two mosques.
"Be assured this is just the beginning of the work we'll be doing," Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern told a news conference on Thursday.
"It's in the national interest and it's about safety ... to prevent an act of terror from ever happening again in our country," she said of the ban.
Ardern said she expects the new gun control law to be in place by April 11 and buy-back schemes will be established for banned weapons.
