Protesters gathered in Karachi on Wednesday to condemn Indian missile strikes and voice support for Pakistan’s military, as tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbours continued to escalate.
The demonstration, led by the Pakistan Markazi Muslim League, came after India launched missiles into Pakistani territory in retaliation for last month’s deadly attack on Indian tourists in Kashmir.
Pakistan called the strikes an act of war, claiming over 30 civilians, including children, were killed and several Indian jets shot down.
India said it struck infrastructure used by militants linked to last month’s attack.
On Thursday, further drone strikes reportedly damaged homes and injured soldiers.
