Summary:Australian prime minister Scott Morrison called it a right-wing terrorist attack, and described himself as “numbed” that such an attack could happen in a place like Christchurch. The group of senior chief executives from the security intelligence service, foreign affairs, department of prime minister and cabinet, civil defence and others is only ever convened in times of crisis and when national security is under threat.
