Amid rising tensions, Pakistan on Friday dismissed reports from Indian media alleging that it carried out attacks on various Indian sites, describing such claims as 'entirely unfounded'. The Foreign Office accused the reports of being part of a 'reckless propaganda campaign'.
India's Thursday night operation, reportedly neutralizing an assault by Pakistan's military involving drones and missiles on locations such as Jammu and Pathankot, was deemed baseless by Pakistan. The Indian defence spokesperson claimed Pakistani-origin drones and missiles targeted military stations along the International Border.
In response, Pakistan's Foreign Office criticized India's stance as a deliberate attempt to destabilize the region. It highlighted the need for credible investigations and urged international intervention to promote restraint, emphasizing that any unjust escalation will be met decisively to protect Pakistan's sovereignty.
