ISLAMABAD: Naila Kiani became first Pakistani woman climber to summit five peaks of over 8,000m height when on Sunday (14th of May, 2023) she successfully ascended Mt Everest (8848m), the world’s tallest mountain, at 8.02 AM.

Naila Kiani first rose to prominence after images of her wedding shoot at K2 Base Camp in 2018 circulated on social media.

She summited Gasherbrum-II (8,035m) in 2021, Gasherbrum-I (8,068m), K2 (8611) in July 2022 and Annapurna (8,091m) in 2023.
