Politicians, journalists, and activists took to Twitter to air their reactions to the biggest news story of the day – the Rangers raid on Nine-Zero, the headquarters of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM).

The Rangers carried out the raid in a targeted operation early Wednesday morning, with the party claiming that several leaders had been arrested. An MQM worker was shot dead during aerial firing following the raid.

In a statement issued hours after the start of the operation, the MQM’s Raabta Committee said Rangers personnel had forcefully raided and ransacked the MQM’s head office.
