MALE, March 15 (Xinhua) -- Maldivian President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih strongly condemned the multiple shootings in Christchurch, New Zealand on Friday, which killed 49 people and left 48 others injured.
In a message on his official Twitter account, Solih said his thoughts and prayers were with the victims, their families and the entire New Zealand community.
"Terrorism and bigotry have no place in civilized society and I condemn this cowardly act in the strongest of terms," Solih said.
At least 49 people were killed in multiple shootings in two mosques of New Zealand's Christchurch on Friday, and police said they have arrested four suspects so far.
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said this was one of New Zealand's darkest days.
