Islamabad, Rawalpindi Reopen as Authorities Lift Restrictions, Praise Public Patience

Authorities have formally lifted traffic restrictions across the twin cities on Sunday. This decision comes after expressing high praise for the residents of Islamabad and Rawalpindi for their patience during recent security-related road closures.

Security was heightened in the area ahead of anticipated US-Iran peace talks, leading to several days of restrictions around the Serena Hotel and the Red Zone. Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar wrote on his X account that traffic restrictions have been lifted as of today, extending gratitude to the people of Pakistan for their patience and cooperation.

The development follows a conversation between Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on April 25, after the second round of US-Iran negotiations in Islamabad were called off. President Donald Trump said Iran can reach out to the United States if it wants to negotiate an end to the war between the two countries.
