In the aftermath of a military operation against India, Pakistan's Defense Minister Khawaja Asif clarified that no meeting of the National Command Authority, the crucial body overseeing Pakistan's nuclear arsenal, is on the agenda.
This announcement comes after Pakistan's military indicated earlier that Prime Minister had requested the nation's top civil-military authorities to convene.
However, Asif's clarification now dismisses any immediate plans for such an authoritative gathering, leaving the situation tense but unchanged at the institutional decision-making level.
