RABAT, March 15 (Xinhua) -- The Islamic Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ISESCO) strongly condemned the terrorist shootings at two mosques during the Friday prayer in New Zealand's city of Christchurch.
"This heinous terrorist attack is a crime against humanity which reflects racist and extremist groups' bitter hatred against Islam," ISESCO said, calling for "international condemnation of such act and punishment of its perpetrators."
The Islamic organization also appealed for solidarity with Muslims in New Zealand and expressed its confidence that New Zealand authorities will take the necessary measures to punish terrorists and protect mosques and Muslims on its territory.
The shootings on Friday claimed the lives of 49 people and injured dozens of others.
