A large number of people have taken to the streets of Karachi’s Do Talwar in solidarity with the people of Palestine. The protestors carried Palestinian flags and banners that said “Stop bombardment of Gaza”.

One woman present there highlighted that the people in Gaza were “homeless, without food, family [and] water”. “So I think we all need to stand [up for them] right now”.

“I feel this is a time when you want to say enough is enough,” she asserted.
