NOSHKI, BALOCHISTAN: All routes leading into Noshki city have remained closed since early morning on Thursday, with security forces taking up positions at key locations across the city, according to local residents and traders.
Residents describe the situation as an undeclared, curfew-like lockdown, with movement into and out of the city severely restricted. Traders say the closure has disrupted normal business activity, leaving shopkeepers and daily-wage workers particularly affected.
No official reason has been given for the closure, and authorities have not issued any statement explaining the deployment or the restrictions on movement.
Local sources say the situation in the city remains tense, with residents largely confined to their homes and uncertainty growing over how long the lockdown will continue.
