New Zealand's silver fern icon has been projected onto the Sydney Opera House as a symbol of solidarity with the country after Muslims were massacred while worshipping at mosques in Christchurch.

A silver fern has been projected onto the Sydney Opera House as a symbol of solidarity for the people of New Zealand following the Christchurch terrorist attack.

Ms Berejiklian said the display demonstrated the state's unity and compassion towards everyone affected by the attacks. "We feel the loss in Christchurch especially deeply given the closeness of our two countries. It is as though this has occurred on our own soil." In Christchurch, mourners laid flowers at cordons near both mosques, while hundreds more gathered at an official area set up for people to pay their respects in the city's botanic gardens near the hospital
