Rallies and demonstrations have been held across Karachi to mark Al-Quds Day in solidarity with Palestinians and condemn Israeli atrocities against them.
The Imamia Students Organisation (ISO) staged a rally from Numaish to Tibet Centre on MA Jinnah Road, which was attended by a large number of people, including women and children, who vowed to continue their support for an independent Palestinian state with Al-Quds as its capital.
The key speakers at the rally included Fakhar Abbas of the ISO, Dr Mairaj ul Huda Siddiqi of the Jamaat-i-Islami, PTI’s Firdaus Shamim Naqvi, Sindh government spokesperson Tehseen Abidi, Adil Askari of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) and other leaders of different political parties.
The Majlis Wahdat-i-Muslimeen (MWM) also staged demonstrations in different parts of the city in connection with Youm Al-Quds.
A large number of people who attended the events across the city also demanded a strong reaction from the Muslim world for immediate help to the people in Gaza and rejected the “so-called normalisation of terms with Israel” from the Islamic countries.
