LA NOTIZIA: Pakistan, manifestazioni a supporto dell’Iran finiscono nel sangue: 25 morti negli scontri con la polizia

Sono finite nel sangue le proste filo-iraniane, esplose in tutto il Pakistan in risposta all’uccisione dell’ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Nel Paese islamico sono almeno ventacinque le vittime causate dagli scontri tra la folla inferocita e le forze dell’ordine di Islamabad.
Karachi, l’assalto e il gas
Particolarmente tesa la situazione registrata nella città di Karachi dove la tensione ha toccato il punto di rottura. Qui migliaia di manifestanti hanno tentato di avvicinarsi agli edifici diplomatici americani, con il probabile intento di assaltarli, scatenando la durissima reazione della polizia che li ha ingaggiati nei pressi dell’enclave che ospita l’ambasciata Usa.
Gas lacrimogeni, sirene e dopo gli immancabili spari che secondo la polizia locale hanno causato almeno dieci morti e oltre settanta feriti tra i manifestanti.
Nord blindato, esercito in strada
Ma se possibile è andata ancora peggio nel Gilgit-Baltistan. Qui tra Gilgit e Skardu le vittime sono state almeno tredici morti, frutto degli scontri tra la folla inferocita e l’esercito pakistan che poi ha annunciato un coprifuoco notturno che si protrarrà almeno fino a mercoledì.
Tensione anche nella capitale Islamabad dove due persone sono state uccise mentre migliaia di cittadini sfilavano con le foto del defunto leader iraniano. Scene che raccontano un Paese spaccato, stretto tra solidarietà religiosa e timori geopolitici.
Il premier Shehbaz Sharif ha definito l’uccisione di Khamenei una “violazione del diritto internazionale”. Parole calibrate – Sharif ha legami sia con Washington sia con Teheran – ma cariche di peso politico.
Con le tensioni in Pakistan che sono sempre più forti, le ambasciate di Stati Uniti e Regno Unito hanno invitato i propri cittadini alla prudenza, consigliando, dove possibile, di restare al sicuro. Parole che dimostrano il timore che queste proteste siano tutt’altro che finite e che, anzi, potrebbero esplodere nuovamente e senza alcun preavviso.

Pakistan, demonstrations in support of Iran turn violent: 25 dead in clashes with police.

Iranian-backed protests have spilled into the blood in Pakistan, erupting across the country in response to the killing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. At least 25 people have died in the country’s Islamic nation as a result of clashes between the enraged crowds and Islamabad police forces.

Karachi, the assault and the gas
The situation was particularly tense in the city of Karachi, where the tension reached a breaking point. Here, thousands of protesters attempted to approach American diplomatic buildings, with the likely intent of attacking them, triggering the hard reaction of the police who engaged them near the enclave hosting the US embassy.
Tear gas, sirens, and after the inevitable gunshots that, according to local police, caused at least ten deaths and over seventy injured among the protesters.
North shielded, army on the street
But if possible it went even worse in Gilgit-Baltistan. Here, between Gilgit and Skardu, the victims were at least thirteen dead, a result of clashes between the enraged crowds and the Pakistani army, which then announced a nighttime curfew that will last at least until Wednesday.
Tension also in the capital Islamabad, where two people were killed while thousands of citizens marched with photos of the deceased Iranian leader. Scenes that tell a country divided, caught between religious solidarity and geopolitical fears.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has defined the killing of Khamenei as a “violation of international law.” Calibrated words – Sharif has ties both with Washington and with Tehran – but loaded with political weight.
With tensions in Pakistan growing stronger, the embassies of the United States and the United Kingdom have urged their citizens to exercise caution, advising, where possible, to stay safe. Words that demonstrate the fear that these protests are far from over and that, indeed, they could explode again and without any warning.

The chief secretary noted that most incidents were caused by glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs), a phenomenon increasingly common due to rising temperatures and climate change. “We are witnessing the compounded impact of extreme heat and erratic rainfall,” he added.

#ClimateChange and anthropogenic nature destruction in the name of "development" continue to wreck havoc across the most vulnerable areas first.

And by that I mean mountainous communities in the vicinity of melting #Glaciers. If you live in the Alps or any area classed as a mountain range, I'd be packing up to move to flatter terrain outside flood zones at the foothills.
