Punjab schools to reopen after temporary closure over security tensions

  • All educational institutions in Punjab will reopen on Monday, May 12, following a temporary closure due to regional security concerns.
  • The closure began on May 7 as a precaution amid escalated tensions between Pakistan and India involving missile strikes and drone incursions.
  • During the escalation, Pakistan and India exchanged attacks targeting military bases, leading to a US-mediated full and immediate ceasefire agreement.
  • Pakistan downed five Indian fighter jets and nearly 80 drones, including Israeli-made Heron UAVs, while the Punjab government imposed blackouts in 15 districts as a safety measure.
  • The reopening aims to ensure educational continuity with safety protocols in place, and local authorities may adjust school operations based on evolving security conditions.
