From Times Wire Reports
The U.S. Consulate in Karachi will reopen today with “enhanced security,” four days after it was targeted in a deadly car bombing that killed 12 people and injured about 50, a consulate official said. No Americans were among the dead.
“But in the near future, the U.S. Consulate building will only be open to American citizens,” said the official, who declined to be identified. He did not elaborate on the enhanced security.
The U.S. Embassy in Islamabad as well as consulates in Lahore and Peshawar reopened Monday.
