Pakistani Jets Escort Iranian Delegates To Islamabad For High-Stakes Talks With US
In a high-stakes diplomatic spectacle, Pakistan has taken center stage as it hosts crucial peace talks between the United States and Iran on April 11 in Islamabad. Amid rising fears of escalation in the Middle East conflict, reports and viral visuals claim that the Pakistan Air Force deployed an aerial shield to escort the Iranian delegation led by Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf into Pakistani airspace. The alleged operation included advanced fighter jets, AWACS surveillance aircraft, and electronic warfare systems — signaling an unprecedented level of security for a foreign political delegation. The extraordinary measures reportedly come amid concerns that Israel could target or disrupt the Iranian leadership en route to talks. However, some of the circulating footage has been debunked as old or unrelated, and official confirmation of such an escort remains unclear.
