@NaeemAslam23🚨 🇵🇰 PAKISTAN ORDERS 9 PM MARKET CLOSURES AS GULF ENERGY SHOCK FORCES EMERGENCY FUEL CUTS Pakistan has ordered markets to shut by 9 PM, cut fuel allocations for most government vehicles by 50% for three months, banned new state vehicle purchases and restricted foreign travel as Gulf disruption drives energy costs higher. (Reuters) The squeeze is bigger than petrol: Pakistan also faces costly LNG supplies as Hormuz and Red Sea disruption tighten regional energy flows.
