CHRISTCHURCH: The Muslim call to Azaan rang out over Christchurch and around New Zealand on Friday, as thousands gathered to remember the 50 people killed by a lone gunman at two mosques a week ago.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern led an estimated 5,000 people standing quietly at Hagley Park in front of the Al Noor mosque, where most of the victims died.

“New Zealand mourns with you. We are one,” she said in a short speech, followed by two minutes of silence.
