Hundreds of people took to the streets in various parts of South Punjab, including Multan, Bahawalpur, Dera Ghazi Khan, Muzaffargarh, Rahimyar Khan and other areas to protest against American president’s decision to declare the city of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and for attacking on Pakistan’s sovereignty by issuing notices. The demonstrators also burnt the effigy of US president and chanted slogans against Trump for his pro-Jewish policies.
