People attend a rally to mark the first anniversary of May 2023 riots, in Peshawar

Supporters of the ruling Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) are attending a rally in front of the paramilitary FC headquarters in Peshawar, Pakistan, on May 9, 2024, to show solidarity with the Pakistani Army on the first anniversary of the May 2023 riots. Omar Ayub Khan, the Secretary General of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), is dismissing criticisms of the party's May 9 protests as a conspiracy to target party founder Imran Khan, while emphasizing PTI's commitment to upholding the supremacy of the Constitution and law in Pakistan. The PTI is announcing peaceful protests across the country on May 9, commemorating the violent protests that occurred after Imran Khan's arrest in 2023. The government is planning to celebrate the first anniversary of the May 9 violence targeting military installations and martyrs' monuments with the slogan "May 9, never again," while imposing Section 144 to counter the opposition Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf's protests.
