Foreign envoys in Pakistan asked to limit activities

With a surge in suicide bombings in the country, the Pakistan government has asked all the foreign diplomats based in Islamabad and other cities not to leave their working stations and avoid travel to other parts of the country without informing the foreign ministry. “The foreign diplomats in capital city and other parts of the country have been asked to restrain their movements and travel to other cities and towns only in case of urgency and that too after informing the foreign ministry,” said a senior official here Tuesday.
