More than 40 people were killed and several injured, in the attack on two mosques in Christchurch New Zealand.
PM Imran added “I blame these increasing terror attacks on the current Islamophobia post-9/11 where Islam & 1.3 bn Muslims have collectively been blamed for any act of terror by a Muslim. This has been done deliberately to also demonize legitimate Muslim political struggles”
