How scary is this?

Fortunately, however, Imran Khan was immediately shifted to Shaukat Khannum Cancer Hospital in Lahore. The doctors at the hospital said that he was stable and talking as well.

However, unfortunately one citizen lost his life at the incident. Moreover, about 14 other party leaders and citizens sustained injuries. Ahmed Nasir Chatha sustained bullet wounds to both his legs while Faisal Javed to his face. Zahid Khan was also hit by bullets in his right arm and right leg. The list does not end here. Liaqat and Areeb sustained bullet injuries to their abdomens.

Things were VERY serious!

The videos of the incident are surfacing all across social media. A video of the gunman, who opened fire at Khan, is also doing rounds everywhere.

The video, however, also shows a man who was brave enough to tackle the gunman. The man himself was unarmed, yet still had enough courage and guts to tackle the suspect all by himself. The man has been identified to be a PTI supporter named Ibtisam.

True man of steel! Superman who?

Imran Khan’s former wife, Jemima Khan, took to twitter to thank Ibtisam for saving Imran Khan and to stop the assassination attempt.

Provincial minister for Healthcare, Dr. Yasmin Rashid, also took to twitter to shout the savior out. She showered him with all the prayers and blessings and called it a “true act of valor”.

People all over Pakistan have been sharing their views and their disgust towards this heinous attack. Not only people of this nation, but people all over the world condemn this attack on Khan. The US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, and Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, expressed their shock at the incident that took place in Wazirabad.

Moreover, everyone’s absolute favorite, Mufti Menk, also showed his disbelief and grief towards the news of Imran Khan. He went on to wish for nothing but the best for him and showered him with a bunch of prayers.

These tweets are nothing but absolutely and completely wholesome!

As a valiant soldier of man that Imran Khan is, after sustaining these painful wounds that could have proved to be fatal, he came out of his container to greet and assure his supporters about his wellness. He waved at his supporters and a couple of them came forward to support him to be able to reach for his car.

Speechless!

Imran Khan has decided that he will not stop here. The long march is set to resume and they will continue to march towards Islamabad as it was planned originally. Imran Khan will also be addressing the nation today first time after the attack. The speech will be at 6pm local time and will be heard all over Pakistan.
