Heavily armed New South Wales police move into position after hostages forced to hold up a black and white flag bearing what appears to be the Islamic creed at windows of cafe in the centre of Sydney’s CBD They demand to speak to the PM (Prime Minister) live on radio.https://au.news.yahoo.com/nsw/a/25772503/siege-situation-in-martin-place/ A siege situation is underway in Sydney's Martin Place as a gunman holds up a Lindt Chocolate Cafe. Police have confirmed an operation is underway after officers were called to the shop around 9:45am on Monday. It's believed at least 13 hostages are being held in the cafe, where a black flag with white Arabic writing was reportedly brandished across the window. The 7News Sydney newsroom, which faces the cafe under siege, has been evacuated by police. An Islamic flag - black with white writing on it - has been held up to the glass. In a chilling drama unfolding in the city centre, Martin Place has been shut down and scores of police are surrounding the cafe. Trains between Central Station and Bondi Junction station has been stopped while buses are now being diverted away from the area. Martin Place was initially named as a potential target during terror raids earlier this year. I know there are a handful of Australian members here, so please stay safe! |

Jesus Christ died and was raised on the third day, the only "God" to overcome death.
