All private, public, and goods transport services in Rawalpindi and Islamabad have been suspended until further notice as authorities enforce heightened security measures across the twin cities.
The decision was announced through official statements, including a post from the Deputy Commissioner Rawalpindi, confirming that the suspension has taken effect immediately. A similar directive was issued in Islamabad, where officials halted heavy and public transport and urged citizens to cooperate with law enforcement agencies.
Authorities said the restrictions are part of broader security arrangements as the situation continues to evolve.
Meanwhile, a large-scale deployment has been carried out to maintain order, with over 10,000 police personnel stationed across both cities. In addition, more than 600 checkpoints have been established at key entry and exit points to ensure strict monitoring.
Security is expected to be further tightened around sensitive installations, including Nur Khan Airbase and Islamabad International Airport. Officials indicated that surrounding areas may be completely sealed from midnight if the next round of talks between the United States and Iran proceeds.
Residents have been advised to remain cautious, limit unnecessary movement, and stay updated through official channels as the security situation develops.
