In addition, the government of these countries have also directed their diplomats to remain confined to their residences in Islamabad and not to move to any political event in the federal capital city due to serious security threats to such gatherings. The diplomats have also been directed to move to their respective consulate generals in Karachi if the security situation in Islamabad became volatile, a diplomatic source told Dawn.
