Huge Rally in Pakistan for Women’s Rights
Tens of thousands of women rallied in Pakistan's southern port city of Karachi Sunday to call for improved rights and gender equality.
Organizers of the event called “Empowered Women – Stronger Pakistan” said more than half a million female activists and supporters of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement political party took part, while local media reported up to a million participants. The exact number could not be independently verified.
