Circassian family killed in New Zealand shooting after escaping Syrian war

 

USA Today -- Among those killed in the New Zealand mosque shooting were members of a Circassian family who had just been relocated to New Zealand three months ago after fleeing the Syrian war.

 

The family's plight has become an instant focus for the tight-knit Circassian community in New Jersey.

 

At her Haledon home, Rouzana Muhajer was crying and scanning social media for news of the mosque shooting Friday when she got word that her childhood friend had been at one of the two mosques where the massacre unfolded.
