Pakistani Prime Minister ​Shehbaz ​Sharif said late on Friday that the US-Iran talks in Islamabad slated to begin on Saturday were a make or break to achieve a permanent ceasefire in the weeks-long Middle East conflict.
The centre of Islamabad was placed under a complete lockdown, with authorities declaring a public holiday and establishing a 2-mile "red zone" security perimeter around the hotel hosting the talks.
Saturday’s talks are expected to focus on extending the ceasefire beyond the current two weeks and easing regional tensions.
