ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – The Islamabad and Punjab police are using expired tear gas shells on demonstrators.
According to experts, the expired tear gas is poisonous and the chances of falling unconscious are very high.

The police personnel are using tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse the protesters.

The injured were rushed to Islamabad s two main hospitals, and the number of casualties is expected to rise as clashes continue.
