The Feminist Collective has written a letter to protest the invitation of Ronya Othmann, a German author known for her support of Israel, as a guest speaker at the Karachi Literature Festival. Othmann has a history of making problematic and anti-Islam comments, and the Collective has demanded that her invitation be cancelled and an apology be issued to the Palestinian people. The KLF has removed her name from the list of speakers on its website, and an official statement from the festival is still pending.
