In Islamabad, Pakistan has ramped up security measures ahead of a potential second round of talks between the US and Iran, following previous discussions that ended without agreement on April 11 and 12. Authorities have deployed over 10,000 police personnel and set up more than 600 checkpoints in Rawalpindi, which is adjacent to Islamabad. The security protocol includes sealing sensitive areas around Nur Khan Airbase and Islamabad International Airport. A complete ban on drone flights and aerial activities has been imposed to ensure the safety of aircraft carrying foreign delegations. Additionally, many public establishments such as restaurants, parks, and markets will remain closed until further notice. The extraordinary measures come as the ceasefire between the US and Iran is set to expire on April 22. Despite the preparations, there is no confirmed schedule for the next round of talks, with official sources denying reports of a meeting on Monday.
