Supporters of the Islami Jamiat Talaba shout slogans during a protest against the government for reopening the NATO supply route to Afghanistan in Karachi, Pakistan on 5 July 2012. Pakistan’s cabinet on 4 July 2012 approved the re-opening of supply routes to NATO troops in Afghanistan, after a suspension of more than seven months. The shipments were discontinued in Nov after 24 Pakistani soldiers were killed by a NATO airstrike in the north-western tribal region along the Afghan border. The decision was made after the US government complied with Islamabad’s demand to apologise for the soldiers’s deaths. Photo courtesy nation.com.pk ---NNN
