- Dar mentioned that the Embassy in Iraq is engaging with Pakistani pilgrims who are currently unable to leave because of restricted airspace, and efforts are being made to provide them with safe accommodations and arrange potential evacuation.
- These developments reflect rising regional tensions and Pakistan’s ongoing efforts to protect its citizens while advising against travel to Iran and Iraq until stability returns.
