Islamabad streets empty as Pakistani forces shut down protests, arrest Imran Khan supporters

Islamabad residents woke up on Wednesday morning to empty streets littered with smashed up vehicles, after Pakistan’s security forces arrested hundreds of supporters of the jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan - and effectively put an end citywide protests - according to local media.
“There was a stampede during the (midnight) operation and a few people (protestors) managed to escape, leaving behind their vehicles and belongings," said Islamabad resident Waseem Malik.
Other locals expressed their relief as road sweepers worked to clean up broken glass and debris on the street in the morning.
“The situation this morning shows that the roads are completely cleared, and people are now moving freely. (Local) residents appear to be satisfied, and it seems that the sit-in protest has been cancelled, as many protesters have returned to the city or their homes," said another.

This is what freedom looks like!

Being a Pakistani (Not a politician or even PTI member) "the soon to be reported" massacre of over 100 civilian protestors at D-Chowk Islamabad this morning, feel like a jarring wake-up from a deep, numbing sleep- I want to let the world know what hjappened here but thoughts are scattered and hollow, as if words themselves have lost meaning. Time and again, I’ve tried to compose this draft but each attempt ends in a meaningless heap of anger, curses, tears, and helpless prayers for divine intervention. Being a Pakistani raised up in family with military back ground, it feels like a hard slap across the face from one’s own child-now grown powerful enough to overpower the parent. I wonder if this is simply the darkest moment before the dawn. Tragic events like the deaths of Arshad Sharif and Zille Shah, the assassination attempts on Imran Khan, his arrest, fascist election rigging, blatant disregard for our constitution, and the horrific abductions and torture of PTI leaders and their families-including women and children-are fresh scars on our collective conscience. I'm surprised that international media are turning a blind eye. The dots are already aligned and could be connected by a third grader. Our army generals remind me of the wolf in Little Red Riding Hood, cunningly disguised as the grandmother. Their actions show no remorse-only a twisted pride in dismantling what they perceive as their ‘enemy.’ It wouldn’t surprise me if they celebrated this massacre as a strategic triumph. As I look ahead, the hope for anything peaceful feels out of reach now, overshadowed by the dreadful echoes of past tragedies like 9/11 and the APS attack in Peshawar. (Any one not aware of APS,,, a story awaits). Yet in this suffocating darkness, I pray for divine mercy to guide us. May we find the strength and wisdom to endure, and may this agony pave the way for a brighter tomorrow.

This was Pakistan's Tiananmen Square Massacre where fascist army opened fire on unarmed civilians asking for rights. That is all.

[@sughrasoomro3458]

What happened in Pakistan does not happen in any democratic country. Pakistanis went peacefully to demand their rights, where they were arrested by the Pakistani military, army, police and other two forces. Killed by. Because after the regime change after, the government that has come to this country has the establishment behind it and has imposed these thieves and robbers on the Pakistanis. If they withdraw their right, their government will be scattered like cards
