Security alert at U.S mosques on Muslim day of worship after New Zealand attack
Security has been increased for Friday prayers at mosques in the U.S., after a shooting at two mosques in New Zealand.
She said:"It has no place in New Zealand. Many of those affected will be members of our migrant communities—New Zealand is their home—they are us.” The New York Police Department told Newsweek in a statement: “The NYPD, in conjunction with our law enforcement partners, is closely monitoring events in New Zealand, and out of an abundance of caution is assessing security at locations around the city.”
“Be there for them. Check in. Perhaps extend a kind gesture at your local mosque. There is so much fear and hate. We must negate it with active, courageous love.” In a separate tweet, Rashid wrote that Muslims will continue to go to mosques regardless of the shootings.
