Pakistani Cities Under Attack? Blast Reported From Karachi, Lahore And Other Cities

A series of explosions reportedly took place in the Pakistani cities of Lahore and Karachi on Thursday.

According to reports, three blasts occurred in Lahore, a city in Pakistan's Punjab province, this morning, sparking panic among locals, who fled their homes fearing for their lives.

In Karachi, residents reportedly heard the sound of an explosion near Sharafi Goth in Malir.

Frightened by the blasts, people in Lahore began rushing out of their homes in search of safety.

Chaos erupted in Lahore as residents fled following three consecutive explosions on Walton Road. Clouds of smoke filled the city’s skyline as panic spread through the streets.

Local sources reported two loud blasts near Askari 5, with smoke visible from the Naval College area, according to Samaa TV. Another explosion was also reported earlier today in the Burki district, as per MM News.

Commercial flights have been suspended at both Lahore and Sialkot airports until noon on Thursday amid escalating border tensions.

These incidents follow Indian military strikes targeting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir. Indian forces struck four terrorist targets, including the Jaish-e-Mohammed headquarters in Bahawalpur (Punjab province), while destroying five additional targets in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, as per reports.

Additionally, unverified reports suggest that Indian drones struck targets in Lahore, Attock, Gujranwala, Chakwal, Rawalpindi, Bahawalpur, Mianwali, Chor, and Karachi.
