Imran Khan supporters march towards Islamabad despite police crackdown in Pakistan

Supporters of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan resumed their march towards Islamabad on Monday, facing heavy police resistance. Authorities have blocked roads with shipping containers and imposed Section 144 to prevent protests, citing security concerns during a visit from a Belarusian delegation. The march, led by Khan's wife and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister, began after a night stop in Punjab. Protesters are determined to reach the capital despite police threats of arrests and clashes, which have already resulted in numerous detentions across Punjab. Khan, who has been in jail since last year, claims his party's electoral victory was undermined by the ruling coalition. His supporters continue to rally against what they describe as a "stolen mandate" and oppressive government actions.
