"Take the LRT to the rally and alight at the Bukit Jalil LRT Station,” the post said.

Scheduled to begin at 6pm, the gathering aims to send the message that Malaysia condemns the assassination of Hamas Political Bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh and opposes the relentless cruelty of the Zionist regime.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is expected to deliver a speech to declare support for the Palestinian struggle.

Several other leaders are also expected to speak.

The event will include Maghrib prayers, a video screening, and the Qunut Nazilah recital.

On Saturday (Aug 3), Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil said about 20,000 people are expected to attend the rally to show their support for the Palestinian people. – Bernama
