Fresh geopolitical tensions have erupted after explosive claims from US officials alleged that Iranian military aircraft were relocated to Pakistani airbases following fears of potential American airstrikes. The controversy has now placed Pakistan’s role as a supposed mediator between Washington and Tehran under intense international scrutiny. According to reports cited by CBS, Iranian aircraft were allegedly moved to Pakistan’s strategically important Nur Khan Airbase after ceasefire developments in West Asia. However, Islamabad has strongly denied the allegations, insisting there is no evidence of Iranian military activity at any Pakistani base. The issue escalated further after US Senator Lindsey Graham publicly questioned Pakistan’s neutrality and called for a comprehensive reassessment of Islamabad’s diplomatic role in US-Iran engagement.
