The Palestine Solidarity Committee — a body recently formed by civil society members in Karachi to raise voice for conflict-hit Palestinians — has announced to hold a rally at the city’s Sharah-i-Qaideen-Tariq Road intersection at 3:30pm on Wednesday.

Former Karachi administrator Fahim Zaman said the platform is apolitical and nonpartisan.

The idea is that leftists, rightists, centralists, and religious people who feel Palestine’s pain should gather in one place and demonstrate the collective voice of the city, he added.
