Pakistan, March 5 -- Pakistan's meat exports to Gulf countries have been disrupted as the ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel continues to affect regional airspace and maritime routes, halting shipments of beef and mutton from the country. Traders say the situation has persisted for five consecutive days, raising concerns among exporters and livestock dealers.

According to market sources, the closure of key airspace and sea routes across several Middle Eastern countries has interrupted the transportation of meat consignments from Pakistan to Gulf markets. As a result, exporters have been unable to deliver fresh supplies of mutton and beef to buyers in the region, causing a backlog in the local supply chain.
