Islamabad Pakistan on Monday reimposed localised lockdowns in a number of coronavirus hotspots amid warnings of a second wave of infections.
Several neighbourhoods in the southern city of Karachi have been put under mini lockdowns, with no one allowed to leave or enter, provincial government spokesman Murtaza Wahab said.
In Pakistan-administered Kashmir, authorities announced they would reinforce a complete lockdown, with nobody allowed to enter or leave.
Pakistan lifted almost all restrictions on May 6, but started sealing off localised virus hotspots from June, a strategy that had helped the country regain control over its rising caseload.
Several schools and colleges have also been closed across the country after staff or students were found to be infected with the virus. (DPA)
