Clashes broke out between the Pakistani police and supporters of the Pakistan Muslim Unity Council in Karachi on Sunday, during a protest near the American consulate over the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in an Israeli strike.

Footage shows demonstrators marching with Lebanese and Hezbollah flags while chanting "Ya Hussein" and "We are with you, Nasrallah". Pakistani police can also be seen forming a cordon and using a barricade of shipping containers to block the march, before clashing with protesters and firing tear gas to disperse them.

Other senior Hezbollah figures were reportedly killed in the Israeli strikes on Beirut's southern suburbs on Friday evening, including southern front commander Ali Karki, whose death was confirmed by the group on Sunday.

On Friday evening, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) announced that it had "carried out a precise strike on the central headquarters of Hezbollah”, before declaring on Saturday that the attack had resulted in the death of Hezbollah's Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah.

The IDF released another statement later on Saturday indicating that it had conducted "airstrikes targeting more than 140 Hezbollah-affiliated sites over the past night."

In a formal statement on Saturday, Hezbollah confirmed the death of the Secretary-General in the Beirut strike, along with other leaders that had yet to be named at the time of publication.

Bombardment of the southern suburbs of Beirut reportedly continued on Saturday, the sixth day since fighting between Hezbollah and Israel intensified, with strikes also reported in southern regions and the Bekaa Valley.

On Monday, the IDF announced the start of a campaign of airstrikes on Hezbollah positions dubbed 'Operation Northern Arrows'. The Lebanese Ministry of Health reported that these attacks have resulted in more than 1,030 deaths and left 6,300 people injured.

Tensions between the sides escalated in mid-September after a series of explosions of wireless communications devices used by Hezbollah left dozens dead and thousands injured. Hezbollah responded by launching hundreds of rockets into northern Israel.

Hezbollah, Lebanese, and Palestinian factions have been exchanging cross-border shelling with the Israeli forces since the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.
