Most outlets reported that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif approved or ordered the installation of smart scanners at international airports to facilitate passengers and eliminate outdated baggage-screening procedures.

Dawn and ProPakistani added that the scanners would replace outdated methods and reduce passenger inconvenience. Overall, the framing was consistent, with slight variations in emphasis on the impact on travelers.
