Facebook Chief and billionaire, Mark Zuckerberg has spoken out against the "fear and distrust" spread by the recent wave of terror attacks – and called for "love" to combat them, The Express reports.
According to the report, the Facebook founder said atrocities in
Belgium, Pakistan and Turkey were all designed to sow seeds of hatred
between different communities.
He said: "Each of these attacks were carried out with a goal to
spread fear and distrust, and turn members of a community against each
other."
The "only sustainable way to fight back" against the sickening
attacks is to "create a world" where everyone "feels cared for and
loved", he added.
On Easter Sunday, at least 70 people were killed and 300 injured
when a Taliban splinter group detonated a bomb in a park while children
were playing. The people killed were mainly Christians.
The militants said they deliberately targeted the Christian
community in the attack, launched on the holiest day of the Christian
calendar.
It came after Islamic State militants killed dozens more by
attacking Brussels and Ankara, the Belgian and Turkish capitals
respectively.
Facebook has been criticised for mistakenly asking users hundreds
of miles away from the bombing in Lahore, Pakistan, if they were safe.
Mr Zuckerberg did not adress the criticised but explained why the
Safety Check feature, first introduced in late 2014, had been turned on.
He said: "Over the last two months, we have activated Safety
Check several times for acts of terror – so people in the area can let
their friends and loved ones know they're safe."
