Jailed former Pakistani prime minister Imran Khan has been transferred to a hospital in Islamabad for medical examination following a supreme court order. The move fulfills a longstanding demand by his supporters, who say his health has deteriorated during more than three years in prison. The transfer is seen as a potential first step toward easing tensions between Khan's party and Pakistan's military establishment, which have been at odds since his removal from office in 2022.
