Supporters of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan have commenced a "long march" towards Islamabad. The demonstration began in northwest Pakistan after negotiations between Khan's party and the government failed to resolve demands, including access to the jailed leader. The march proceeds despite the stalled talks.
This protest escalates Pakistan's ongoing political uncertainty. The country faces a volatile period, compounded by a recent increase in militant activity. The march's progression to the capital signals a potential deepening of the political crisis and a challenge to the current administration.
