Thousands rally in Pakistan against Israel's bombing in Gaza, chanting anti-American slogans

Thousands of supporters of Pakistan's Jamaat-e-Islami party rallied in Islamabad against Israel's bombing of Palestinians in Gaza. They accused the US of "backing the aggressor" and chanted anti-American slogans. The protest was originally planned to march to the US embassy but was modified due to stern action by authorities. Another religious party, Jamiat Ulema Islam, held a rally in Quetta expressing solidarity with Gazans. Meanwhile, women's advocacy group Aurat March protested against the plan to deport illegal residents, including Afghans, in several cities.
