According to Ariana News, demonstrators in London marched on central streets, chanting against Pakistan’s military actions. They called for immediate action from the international community.

Organizers reported that a formal proposal was submitted to Norwegian authorities, the United Nations, and the International Criminal Court, demanding urgent measures to halt violence and ensure the safety of civilians.
These protests come amid rising tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan following clashes, airstrikes, and artillery shelling along the Durand Line.
