Pakistan is ramping up security measures in its capital, Islamabad, and nearby Rawalpindi ahead of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit. Authorities have imposed Section 144, restricting public gatherings and political assemblies, to maintain law and order. This comes in the wake of recent militant violence, including an attack on Chinese engineers in Karachi, raising concerns about safety during the high-profile event. The restrictions will remain in place until October 17.
