Australia's new gun control laws include more stringent background checks on people applying for firearms licenses, as well as a buyback scheme, with the government offering cash to people who turn in their weapons.
The tougher measures were passed in response to the Bondi Beach attack, which was the country's deadliest mass shooting in decades.
Australia's Home Affairs Minister said the alleged attackers would not have been able to legally obtain firearms if these laws had already been in place.

The new laws will grant officials the power to cancel or refuse visas for people deemed likely to spread hate and division.
