Pakistani authorities arrest over 170 for anti-US, anti-Israel attacks on KFC stores

Police in Pakistan have arrested over 170 people following a series of mob attacks on KFC outlets in the country. The attacks were motivated by anti-US sentiment and opposition to Israel's war in Gaza. At least 11 incidents were confirmed, with protesters vandalizing the stores. One KFC employee was shot and killed, and investigations are ongoing to determine if the killing was politically motivated. The protests were not officially organized by the Islamist religious party Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP), although one of its members was among those arrested.
