“– Many who have moved here in recent years say they feel welcomed here, and that it is an open society. That such a terrorist attack is done by a person with extremist right-wing motive – the thought simply never that it could happen here, ” says Matilda Wennerholm.”

“Ebtsam Muhsin has been difficult to summarize the feelings on the day after the terror attack. She says she is in shock, as she lives in a nightmare.”

“the Funerals linger”
“Aftonbladet hits the Omar outside the hospital on Riccarton Avenue in Christchurch. “

” Residents have asked people to come and help with the begravningsprocessen. But when we got here we realized that it will take a long time, for that the police must go through their investigation. So it will take time. Right now we are just waiting and seeing what we can help with, ” says Omar.”

“– I’m still in great shock. I can not understand that it has happened, especially here in New Zealand is such a beautiful place with so much diversity. All live here together peacefully, and this brutality and hatred we had never expected. I have always been so proud to live in New Zealand, ” says Omar.”
“”All he did was create more love””
“And the proud is Omar still. He feels that the country responded to the attacks with love and community.”
“– in Addition to the loss of 49 people, which is huge, so I think that all of the ”kiwis” (new zealanders) will be brought together by this. It also goes against what this madman wanted. He tried to create hatred against the minorities and divisions, and all he did was to bring people together and create more love.”
