Several key roads in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Gilgit-Baltistan were closed on Tuesday following the first snowfall of the season. The local administration reported that Chilas, Babusar, and Naran roads have been shut down for all types of traffic due to the heavy snow accumulation.
Authorities stated that the closure is a precautionary measure taken to ensure the safety of travelers, as driving in such conditions could be extremely dangerous. Snow-clearing operations are underway, but the administration is urging the public to avoid unnecessary travel until the roads are deemed safe.
The heavy snowfall has reduced visibility, increasing the risk of accidents. Officials emphasized that travelers should stay informed about weather and road conditions before starting any journey.
Travelers have been advised to remain cautious, stay updated, and follow the guidelines set by the authorities to avoid hazardous situations during the ongoing snowfall.
