On the call of Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Ameer Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman, a nationwide Day of Protest was observed on Monday against US terrorism targeting Iran. In Karachi, JI Youth staged a demonstration outside the Karachi Press Club.
Protesters raised slogans such as Death to America and Israel, and We stand with Iran and Palestine. They carried placards denouncing the US-Israel alliance as a nexus of evil and murderers of the Ummah.
JI Vice Ameer Muslim Pervez, JI Youth President Hashim Abdali, and other leaders, condemned the US airstrikes and accused President Donald Trump of proving America to be the "biggest global terrorist." They warned that the joint aggression by the US and Israel is not only a direct threat to Iran, but also to regional stability and Pakistan's security.
Speakers criticised the Pakistani government's recommendation for a Nobel Prize for Donald Trump, calling it "shameful and hypocritical."
