Channel 7 and Sky News Australia also have studios in the area, also evacuated
My guess is reciprocal agreements are falling apart.
It puts a new light on why it isn’t being reported, so sad, and I wonder if the kidnapper was aware of that when taking hostages in that district. I would think TV coverage would be what they wanted for their effort in kidnapping so many people.
If NOT ISIS, then their efforts may be wasted...hopefully the kidnapped survive. How are your police in responding to crisis like this one?
