Protesters in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province clashed with police over the imposition of governor’s rule, citing the local government’s alleged failure to crack down on Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan fighters. Police fired on protesters, injuring at least five people.
Multiple PTI workers have been injured—several in critical condition—after Khyber Bara police fired directly at peaceful protesters.
Asim Munir’s military-backed regime and its handlers are using live ammunition against peaceful demonstrations to protect their power. For four years since the regime change, anyone taking to the streets in peaceful protest has been met with direct gunfire.
Never in Pakistan’s history have live bullets been fired directly at peaceful demonstrators within their own country. The violent crackdown is a war for personal power that comes at the direct expense of the nation.

Horrifying footage appears to show police firing directly at PTI protesters, leaving civilians wounded. Why? Demanding the release of their elected political leader and standing by democracy.
Those responsible for ordering and carrying out this brutality must be held accountable. Relentless bloodshed and fearmongering from Asim Munir’s petrified regime. Scared people often lash out with the most cruel brutality, and that’s what we’re seeing here. A man terrified to lose power, and terrified of his own people’s will.
The world must watch and take action. We absolutely must take a united stand against tyranny and evil.
The Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Sohail Afridi and Speaker of the provincial assembly Babar Saleem Swati are still missing after they were abducted on Sunday from their official residence by the military regime of General Asim Munir.

@AsadAToor@javeednusrat چاچے نصرت کی بکواس کا بھی کوئی جوڑ نہیں۔ منتخب ایوان اور آئین جیسی چیزوں کو چاچے کے مالک جوتے کی نوک پر رکھتے ہیں لیکن بزدل چاچا صرف مظلوم پر ہی تنقید کر سکتا ہے۔ ایسے بزدل بومرز کی پاکستان میں فراوانی ہے۔
⚠️ Confirmed: Network data show a major disruption to internet connectivity in parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, #Pakistan, as President Zardari imposes emergency rule, suspending the provincial government led by jailed former PM Imran Khan's PTI amid protests demanding his release
پی ٹی آئی کی سیاست اقتدار کے لیے نہیں ہے۔ پی ٹی آئی اقتدار کو جوتے کی نوک پر رکھتی ہیں۔ پی ٹی آئی گورنر راج یا ایمرجنسی بھی بھگت لے گی، لیکن شاید لگانے والے بھگت نہیں سکیں گے۔
سہیل آفریدی صاحب خیبر پختونخوا میں پی ٹی آئی کا سب سے مقبول ترین لیڈر ہے، لیکن جب سے انہوں نے اپنے لوگوں کو بے گھر ہونے سے انکار پر اپنے اقتدار کو خطرے میں ڈالا ہے، آج پورا سابقہ فاٹا ان کے پیچھے کھڑا ہے۔
خیبر پختونخوا کے عوام کی نفرت آپ کو بہا کر لے جائے گی!
A massive pro-democracy movement is in motion in the world's fifth most populous country, which regularly imprisons dissidents and guns down protesters. Why are DC's supposed champions of freedom not rushing to back it in Pakistan, and to cut US support for the dictatorship?
Pakistan's "Long March" for human rights is gaining steam as it steadily proceeds towards the capital
It seems military dictator Asim Munir will have to release pro-democracy leader Imran Khan — or order his regime forces to again attack their own people
Everyone should pay attention to Pakistan's pro-democracy movement
This is the biggest challenge to the US-backed military regime in years
"Field Marshal" Asim Munir badly lost the last elections to Imran Khan — but rigged the results & repressed speech
جنرل صاحب : خیبر پختون خواہ حکومت بہت ضدی ہے تعاون نہیں کرتی آپ ایسا کریں بلوچستان حکومت کے تعاون سے پہلے بلوچستان میں دہشت گردی ختم کر لیں تاکہ ہم مثال بنا کر پیش کر سکیں کہ صوبائی حکومت تعاون کرے تو ہم دہشتگردی ختم کر سکتے ہیں۔
