Thousands of people in Karachi and other major cities and cities in Sindh came out on the roads to condemn the Israeli attack on aid ships on their way to Gaza on October 4th.
At the appeal of Hafiz Naeemur Rehman, a nationwide protest day was observed on Friday against the Israeli attack on the global Sumud Flotilla. Similar collections were held in almost every major town of Sindh.
The global sumud flotilla, transport of medicine and food to Gaza, consisted of more than 40 civilians with about 500 parliamentarians, lawyers and activists.
The flotilla posted several videos on telegram with messages from individuals aboard the different boats, some have their passports and claimed they were abducted and led to Israel against their will, and reiterated that their mission was a non-violent humanitarian cause.
The flotilla is the most profiled symbol of resistance to Israel’s blockade of Gaza.
Its progress on the Mediterranean received international attention when nations, including Turkey, Spain and Italy, sent boats or drones in the event that their citizens demanded help, even though it triggered repeated warnings from Israel to return.
