I strongly condemn the heinous bomb explosion near Chaman Phatak, Quetta, which has resulted in the tragic loss of innocent lives and left many others injured.
Such cowardly acts of terrorism cannot weaken the resolve of the people of Pakistan. We remain steadfast in our determination to eliminate terrorism in all its forms and manifestations.
I express my heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims and pray for the swift recovery of the injured. The entire nation stands in solidarity with the people of Balochistan in this hour of grief.

📍Mustafabad → Dharampura
📍Hameed Nizami → Temple Street
📍Babri Masjid Chowk → Jain Mandir

◾ Lahore is healing its fractured past, breathing new life into the forgotten Hindu, Sikh, Jain, and colonial names that once defined its streets.

Is a 6-rupee fuel price cut actual relief or just a political gimmick? While the government claims this reduction eases the public's financial burden, citizens view it as an insignificant token rather than genuine economic support. True relief would require removing heavy taxes and returning to older, baseline pricing amidst these challenging global economic conditions. #PetrolPrice #Pakistan

BREAKING
Top officials from Pakistan and Qatar will hold what appears to be a decisive meeting with the Iranian leadership to finalise the interim agreement. The Iranian side has already named its negotiating team.
It is expected that US officials may join the Tehran talks virtually, although it is not yet confirmed whether the US side will speak directly with Iranian officials or only through Pakistani and Qatari interlocutors.
Meanwhile, if the terms of the deal are agreed upon, simultaneous joint statements may be issued in both Tehran and Washington.

Iran-US "interim deal" on the cards
The Pakistan Army Chief is now on way to Tehran, according to IRNA.
The Field Marshal was on standby since yesterday, waiting for the green signal.
Since, he has now departed for Tehran, one can safely say that a potentional "interim deal" may be within reach.
While the interior minister was busy in Tehran meeting Iranian officials, some important meetings also took place in Islamabad during the last 24 hours.

The recent matter involving a PML-N Member of the Provincial Assembly and a prominent media personality is a personal issue and will be addressed strictly on merit and in accordance with the law, however, I want to make it absolutely clear that I will not spare anyone found involved in attempting to harass, threaten, or exploit a woman. No individual, regardless of status, position, or political connections, is above the law. State institutions will perform their duties independently, impartially, and in accordance with the Constitution and the law. Any attempt to exert political pressure, abuse influence, or exploit a woman through threats of releasing personal content publicly will be met with firm and uncompromising action. Consider this a clear and serious warning to anyone involved.

Is the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government drawing a hard line against continuous corruption allegations from the media? Chief Minister @SohailAfridiISF has warned provincial secretaries and bureaucrats that they must issue legal notices to dynamic digital channels within three days of any corruption reporting, or face administrative action themselves by the fourth day. While reinforcing that his administration is fully open to genuine evidence of wrongdoing, the CM stressed that malicious propaganda and fabricated perceptions targeting state departments will no longer be tolerated.

Is the constitutional order of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa being dictated from a prison cell? MNA Sher Afzal Khan Marwat has filed a petition in the Federal Constitutional Court challenging the resignation of former CM Ali Amin Gandapur (@AliAminKhanPTI) and the appointment of Sohail Afridi (@SohailAfridiISF). The petition argues that the entire leadership change was an unconstitutional move forced by external dictation from a convicted individual rather than independent parliamentary consensus.

I sincerely appreciate the humanitarian and benevolent action of the esteemed Government of Pakistan to pursue the release of 20 Iranian sailors who were in a precarious situation due to the seizure of their ship in Singapore waters.
In this regard, I would like to thank the tireless efforts of Honorable Prime Minister H.E. Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Pakistan, especially H.E. Mr. Ishaq Dar, Honorable Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, and other relevant agencies.
These sailors were transferred from Singapore to Islamabad following diplomatic efforts and returned to their beloved homeland a few hours ago.
