After being closed for over two weeks, the outpatient department of the National Institute of Ophthalmology and Hospital reopened partially on Thursday. While emergency and outpatient services are now available, all other hospital operations remain suspended. Law enforcement, including police, RAB, and Ansar personnel, were visibly present at the facility. An Ansar member stated that the situation remains under control as of today. The hospital had been shut down following a violent clash between freedom fighters from July and hospital staff, which left several injured.
