Pakistan has deployed the military and imposed a three-day curfew in parts of the northern Gilgit-Baltistan region following violent protests triggered by the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. At least 24 people died and many were injured in clashes, prompting heightened security around US diplomatic missions. Authorities reported significant damage to UN offices and local facilities, while violence spread to major cities like Karachi and Islamabad. The situation remains tense, with warnings of potential further unrest.
