ISLAMABAD: Over 150 Pakistani pilgrims stranded in Iran due to the growing tensions between Iran and Israel were brought back to Islamabad on a special PIA flight from Turkmenistan’s capital Ashgabat.

According to aviation sources, the flight was arranged on the request of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. A PIA Airbus was sent from Peshawar to Ashgabat, where it picked up the pilgrims who had traveled by road from Iran, as Iranian airspace remains closed due to security concerns.

The special flight PK-9552 landed in Islamabad late at night. The families of Pakistani diplomatic staff in Iran were also on board.
