About 20,000 people packed into London’s Trafalgar Square on Sunday to demand the release of more than 200 hostages taken by Hamas during their Oct. 7 incursion from Gaza. More than 1,300 Israelis were killed.

One woman described listening over a phone line as her mother and brother were taken hostage in a kibbutz. Many demonstrators wept as the names of hostages were read out to the crowd.

Meanwhile, hundreds of pro-Palestinian supporters marched towards the U.S. consulate in Karachi, Pakistan on Sunday to condemn U.S. support for Israel's bombardments in Gaza.

The march was organized by Majlis-e-Wahdat-ul-Muslimeen (MWM), a national body of Shi’ite groups and clerics in Pakistan. Protesters were halted about half a kilometre away from the U.S. consulate.

Demonstrators burned Israeli and U.S. flags and urged Muslim countries to end diplomatic ties with Israel.
