A tense standoff is unfolding in southwest Pakistan as militants wearing suicide vests remain seated among passengers aboard a hijacked train, making rescue efforts extremely challenging. The government has confirmed that the attackers have issued a deadline, after which they have threatened to start executing hostages.

Security forces are working to defuse the crisis, but the presence of explosives among the captors has significantly complicated intervention plans. Authorities are in contact with intelligence and law enforcement agencies to assess possible strategies for a safe resolution. Meanwhile, negotiations are reportedly underway to prevent bloodshed.

The situation remains critical as the clock ticks toward the militants’ deadline, raising fears of imminent violence if a breakthrough is not achieved.
