Calling the attacks the "latest example of rising racism and Islamophobia", Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan claimed that the "anti-Islam hatred has rapidly started to take over Western communities like a cancer".

The U.S. stands by New Zealand for anything we can do. God bless all,” he said.
