5 people, including four soldiers, were killed as protests demanding the release of former Prime Minister Imran Khan turned violent in Islamabad. Led by Khan’s wife, Bushra Bibi, the rally began on Sunday and reached the capital on Monday. Police used tear gas, while protesters cleared roadblocks to move forward. The military issued "shoot on sight" orders under Article 245. Schools shut, mobile services were cut, and gatherings were banned in Islamabad. Protesters accused the government of using chemicals against them. Khan, jailed for over a year, faces over 150 cases, including corruption and incitement to violence.
