Thousands took to the streets in Islamabad, Karachi, and Peshawar to condemn Israel’s raid on the Global Sumud Flotilla, which was carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza. Demonstrators waved Palestinian flags, chanted anti-Israel slogans, and demanded the release of detained Pakistani activists.
Political party leaders joined the rallies, rejecting Donald Trump’s peace plan and calling for urgent international action to lift the Gaza blockade. Jamaat-e-Islami leader Monem Zafar said Israel’s intervention was “a clear act of terrorism” against a mission carrying food and medicine.
