The gunman broadcast footage of the attack on one mosque in the city of Christchurch on Facebook, mirroring the carnage played out in video games, after publishing a "manifesto" in which he denounced immigrants, calling them "invaders". The video footage widely circulated on social media, apparently taken by a gunman and posted live online as the attack unfolded, showed him driving to a mosque, entering it and shooting randomly at people inside. It was the worst ever mass killing in New Zealand and the country raised its security threat level to the highest, Ardern said, adding, "This can now only be described as a terrorist attack." Police said three people were in custody including one man in his late 20s who had been charged with murder.
