Pakistan on Sunday (April 26, 2026) eased some restrictions, allowing selective movement of heavy traffic in the twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi as there was no immediate possibility of another round of U.S.-Iran talks.

Pakistan had implemented strict security measures in anticipation of the second round of talks between the U.S. and Iran. More than 10,000 security personnel were deployed, and both Islamabad and Rawalpindi were shut down to manage heavy traffic since last Sunday (April 26, 2026).
