In a show of solidarity with the Palestinian people, more than 200 cyclists took part in the "Kayuhan Amal Palestin" programme held on Monday by UMNO’s Pasir Puteh division in Kelantan.

Jointly organised with the district youth council and Masjid Al-Ibrahimi committee members, participants of the 40-kilometre race were flagged off by Pasir Puteh UMNO chief, Datuk Zawawi Othman at 10 am.

The race began at the mosque and passed several major landmarks, including the Cherang Ruku police station and Tok Bali, before ending back at the mosque at noon.

The programme was launched to raise funds for the Al-Aqsa mosque as well as to protest against the United States’ move to recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

Some RM 20,000 were raised from the event, which would be handed over to the Yayasan Dakwah Islamiah Malaysia, YADIM to assist the Palestinians.
