Unverified sources claimed between 8:45 PM and 9:15 PM UTC on February 23, 2026, that former Prime Minister Imran Khan has been moved to PIMS hospital in Islamabad, according to an X post by SImranshafqat citing sources close to ImranKhanPTI. No official confirmation emerged during this 29-minute window. The report follows an earlier unverified X post by Husnainrafique_ during the prior 8:16 PM to 8:45 PM UTC window claiming Imran Khan had just been brought to PIMS hospital amid tight security, as noted in previous reporting. Mainstream outlets and authorities provided no updates verifying the claims in the current period. This comes after Pakistan Minister Chaudhry's statement between 7:16 PM and 7:45 PM UTC on February 23, 2026, declaring resolve against terror attacks preceding Pakistan's airstrikes in Afghanistan's Nangarhar province, per Dawn.com. Ongoing high alerts in Karachi and arrests of 19 illegal Afghan nationals in Chaman were reported earlier on February 23.
