Pakistan has deployed troops and imposed a curfew after deadly protests erupted over the killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader in U.S.-Israeli strikes. Officials announced a three-day curfew in the northern cities of Gilgit and Skardu, where police said at least 12 people died and 80 others were hurt after attacking U.N. offices. Gilgit-Baltistan government spokesman said Monday the situation was under control and that the curfew would remain in place until Wednesday. Meanwhile, the U.S. Embassy and its consulates in Karachi and Lahore canceled visa appointments and American Citizen Services after demonstrators tried to storm the building in Karachi.
