Protesters in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province clashed with police over the government’s declaration of emergency and the appointment of a governor’s rule.
The confrontation took place in the province’s capital, where demonstrators gathered to express opposition to the emergency measures that have been imposed by the federal authorities.
Police responded with force, resulting in a number of injuries on both sides. The clashes were part of a wider debate over the use of emergency powers in the country.
Local authorities have not released further details on the number of arrests or the extent of the damage caused during the protests.
