Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif condemned an attack on Rangers and police by protesters from the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party in Islamabad. He labeled the attackers as anarchistic and called for accountability for those responsible. The attack resulted in the deaths of at least four Rangers and injuries to five others. Since protests began on November 24, 25 policemen have been killed and over 100 injured, prompting the deployment of the Pakistan Army in the capital. The ongoing protests demand the release of former Prime Minister Imran Khan from prison. The rally, led by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur, has drawn participants from various regions, intensifying the situation in Islamabad.
