PUTRAJAYA: Leaders of Barisan Nasional component parties will join Malaysians at the Putra Mosque on Friday in a show of unity rejecting the United States’ move to recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said their presence at the mass gathering of an estimated 10,000 people was to show that the issue is above politics and religion but about ensuring peace.
