New Zealanders are expected to attend, Friday March the 29th, a national remembrance in Christchurch for the victims of the terror attacks that targeted Muslim worshippers at two mosques, online newspaper Stuff reports.

The gathering will include a series of performances and will be «streamed to a world-wide audience», the same source added.

The service will start at 10am in Christchurch’s Hagley Park, opposite of Al Nour mosque where an Australian terrorist opened fire on worshippers on March the 15th.

The remembrance is called «We Are One», and it is organized by the Christchurch City Council, central government and the Muslim community in the city, the same source said.

For the record, 50 people died in the Christchurch attacks while 50 others were injured.
