Thousands take to streets across Pakistan to protest US-Israeli strikes on Iran

ISLAMABAD: Thousands of protesters rallied in cities across Pakistan on Friday, answering the call of major religio-political parties to condemn ongoing US-Israeli strikes on Iran and the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The demonstrations come amid a volatile regional climate marked by Iran’s retaliatory strikes on Israel and US interests in the Gulf. Khamenei was killed in the first hours of the US-Israeli air campaign that began on Saturday in the first assassination of a country’s top ruler by an airstrike.
