President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan pledged to continue fighting against Islamophobia, as he condemned the latest attack in Canada, which killed four members of a family and injured their 9-year-old son in London, Ontario.

Axar.az reports citing foreign media the president noted that Muslims throughout the world in general and the Turks in Europe in particular, have become the main targets of hatred.

"The latest attack in Canada shows the level that Islamophobia has reached. Turkey will continue to persistently fight Islamophobia and defend the rights of the oppressed," Erdoğan told the ruling Justice and Ruling Party's (AK Party) parliamentary group meeting Wednesday.
