News Wrap: New Zealand mosque gunman sentenced to life in prison

In our news wrap Thursday, a white supremacist who killed 51 people at two New Zealand mosques was sentenced to life in prison without parole. The mass shootings happened in March 2019. Also, the death toll from two days of flash flooding in Afghanistan has now topped 150. Heavy downpours triggered mudslides that collapsed homes, and rescuers are still looking for signs of life beneath the mud.
