Pakistan Orders Medical Institutions to Expel Afghan Students, Halt Fresh Admissions

Pakistan's government issued an order to all medical institutions within its borders to expel Afghan students and cease enrolling new Afghan nationals. The directive was reported by the Press Trust of India, which cited the official decision. The Hindu reported that the decision was made due to deteriorating relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan, and that it does not affect students from other countries. The two sources agree on the main action but differ slightly in emphasis, with the Hindu adding context about the scope of the policy.
