Hurting Our Own Won’t Help Gaza: Azma Bokhari Warns Against Attacks on Fast-Food Chains

Punjab’s Information Minister Azma Bokhari condemned attacks on international fast-food chains in Pakistan, stating they harm local workers and do nothing to help Gaza. She stressed that most of these outlets are locally owned and provide jobs to thousands of Pakistanis. Damaging them only affects the country’s economy and livelihoods. Bokhari urged people to find peaceful, constructive ways to show solidarity with Palestinians, rather than resorting to violence that ultimately hurts fellow Pakistanis more than anyone else.
