Pakistan's PTV back on air after anti-Sharif protests

The Pakistani state television channel PTV has resumed broadcasting after its headquarters were stormed by protesters, taking it temporarily off air.

Soldiers from the Pakistani army stepped in to remove anti-government protesters from the building in Islamabad.

There were also clashes between demonstrators and police outside parliament, as the protesters called for the resignation of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.
