A pro-Palestinian Demonstration by the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN) in Kaduna turned violent, resulting in one death and several injuries. The IMN members protested against Israel's actions in Gaza, carrying Palestinian flags and mannequins representing dead children. The police responded with tear gas and firing into the air, while the protesters threw stones. The IMN spokesperson claimed the police opened fire on their peaceful demonstration, but the police blamed the protesters for the death, stating that the victim was killed by armed demonstrators. The IMN is banned in Nigeria and often faces hostility due to its close ties with Iran.
