Shamsi airbase vacated; Defence Ministry to take control

QUETTA: Defence Ministry will be taking the control of Shamsi airbase from Sunday, as US officials have vacated the facility on the orders of Pakistan government following the Nato strikes that killed at least 24 Pak army soldiers in November.

According to security sources, the officials of Civil Aviation Authority, Ministry of Defence and Ministry of Interior are present at Shamsi airbase.

The decision on whether to hand over the airbase to UAE will be taken later on, the sources added.
