Pakistan Orders Hospitals to Prepare Beds for Mass Casualties

Original: Pakistan Tells Hospitals to Clear Bed Space for "Mass Casualty Incident"

Pakistani authorities have instructed hospitals to free up bed space in preparation for what officials are calling a potential 'mass casualty incident'. The order comes amid tensions surrounding the detention of sisters of former prime minister Imran Khan, who were held ahead of planned protests. Commenters are reading the directive as a sign the government is bracing for large-scale unrest, with the military and Khan's supporters on a collision course.

Why now: The hospital directive is being read as a signal that Pakistan's government expects violent clashes during protests linked to Imran Khan's party.
