“I attended with thousands of Malaysians to show support and solidarity for the liberation of Palestine.“However, in all sincerity, this heart of mine continues to shout ‘Free Palestine! Long live Palestine! Independence for Palestine!;”the Umno president said in a Facebook post. Based on several viral video clips on social media, Ahmad Zahid was seen mistakenly chanting ‘Long live Israel’ during his speech.
Meanwhile, Ahmad Zahid said the rally was not only a signal of love for peace, harmony and strong rejection of oppression and cruelty but also a commemoration of the top Hamas leader, As-Syahid Al Mujahid Ismail Haniyeh, who was brutally killed.
