00.00 The hostages were apparently forced to make Youtube videos where they listed the hostage taker's demands while standing in front of black Islamic flag. One hostage was made to read from a script that included the line: "Our ISIS brother has been very kind to us." The videos have been taken down.

A reporter's encounter with Man Haron Monis
It was the night of September 19 this year, and the anti-terrorism squad had just carried out a series of raids on a dozen homes in south-western Sydney.
Sydney Morning Herald journalist Anne Davies had been sent out to report on the mood in Lakemba, where a rally had been organised by the Muslim organisation Hizb ut Tahrir.
One man introduced himself to Davies as Sheik Haron - the man who this week took 17 people hostage in a Martin Place cafe, before he was shot dead.
11:36am:
Two of the Martin Place hostages were pregnant
Two of the hostages being held at gunpoint in a Martin Place cafe overnight were pregnant, police have revealed.
Another hostage was a 75-year-old woman who was shot in the shoulder.
All three women were in a stable condition in hospital on Tuesday, police said.
This is the latest information we have about the injured hostages:
A 75-year-old woman was shot in the shoulder. She is in a stable condition.
A 52-year-old woman was shot in the foot. She is in a stable condition.
A 43-year-old woman was shot in the leg. She is in a stable condition.
A 39-year-old man received a minor facial injury due to a gunshot. He was treated at hospital and has since been discharged.
A 35-year-old pregnant woman was being assessed at hospital. She is in a stable condition.
A 30-year-old pregnant woman was being assessed in hospital. She is in a stable condition.
11:18am:
Police officer: 'I'll be back at work tomorrow'
Deputy Commissioner Burn said she had spoken to the police officer who was injured in the Sydney siege.
That officer is believed to have suffered pellet wounds in the raid on the cafe just after 2am on Tuesday. He has since been released from hospital.
"I've spoken to him this morning," Deputy Commissioner Burn said.
"He was on his way home actually, and he was a little bit shaken. His only words to me were 'I'll be back at work tomorrow'."
11:14am: Deputy Commissioner Burn said a critical incident investigation was under way. That investigation would be led by Homicide Squad detectives, on behalf of the coroner.
She said that investigation would take place over the next week, and "possibly months".
"It's extremely important that I do not say a great deal about the events of the past 24 hours [while that investigation takes place]," she said
She said she could not talk about the actions of individuals involved, including reports that Lindt manager tried to wrestle the weapon from the gunman.
But she said: "Can I just say I think every single one of those hostages acted courageously".
