A photographer has been shot and wounded during clashes at an anti-Charlie Hebdo protest in the Pakistani city of Karachi.
Asif Hassan was injured while covering the protest being held by religious party activists outside the French Consulate.
"The bullet struck his lung, and passed through his chest," said a doctor at the city's main hospital where Mr Hassan was being treated.
"He is out of immediate danger and he has spoken to his colleagues."
Police fired water cannon and tear gas into the air as they clashed with protesters from the student wing of the Jamaat-e-Islami religious party, which is holding nationwide rallies against the depiction of the Prophet Mohammed by the French satirical weekly.
The rallies follow comments by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, who led parliament in condemning the cartoons in Charlie Hebdo, whose offices in Paris were attacked last week, leaving 12 people dead.
A statement from one faction of the Pakistani Taliban, meanwhile, issued a statement lauding the two brothers who carried out the Charlie Hebdo assault, saying: "They freed the earth from the existence of filthy blasphemers".
It went on: "O enemies of Islam beware! Every youth of this Ummah (Muslim community) is willing to sacrifice himself on the honour of (the) Prophet."
Protesters in the northwest city of Peshawar and central Multan have burned French flags on the streets.
Rallies are also being held in the capital, Islamabad, and the eastern city of Lahore.
