Hawzah News Agency- at the invitation of Senator Allama Raja Nasir Abbas Jafari, the leader of Pakistan's Muslim Unity Council, protest demonstrations on the martyrdom of Ismail Haniyeh to voice solidarity with the oppressed people of Palestine and the brutal killing of dozens of innocent citizens by the Takfiri terrorists were held in Parachinar.
Reports indicate that in the city of Karachi, protests were held in various mosques, including Heidari Mosque in Orangi Town.
Protesters had a large presence with placards and banners with anti-Israeli slogans written on them.
The speakers stated,” Israel, which is in confusion and desperation, has resorted to aggression and violated all international laws and is rapidly moving towards its destruction.”
The martyrdom of the leader of the Islamic world, Ismail Haniyeh, has shown the ugly face of Israel to the world, and this cowardly act cannot hide Israel's defeat and failure in Gaza.
On June 23, terrorists of the Daesh-linked group “Lashkar-i-Jhangvi al-Alami” targeted an Al-Quds rally in Parachinar and killed more than 100 people.
Parachinar, capital of Kurram Agency tribal area in NW of Pakistan with 50,000 population, is a mainly Shia town which had already suffered two deadly bomb blasts in its markets earlier this year.
After the deadly attacks hundreds of protesters staged a peaceful sit-in against the cowardly act and demanded the government to provide security to the people of Parachinar.
They ended their sit-in after Pakistan Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa visited the town and assured the people of better security. The visit by the army chief was warmly appreciated by people of Parachinar.
In January this year a bomb blast killed 24 people in a Parachinar market. The attack was claimed by the Daesh-linked terrorist group “Lashkar-i-Jhangvi al-Alami”.
