RAWALPINDI, 26 February (TNT News): Director General Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Major General Asif Ghafoor on Tuesday categorically rejected Indian claim of an airstrike inside Pakistan and advised Pakistan’s eastern neighbor to stop lying to attain its objectives.
“We will strike back at the time and place of our choosing, now it is India’s time to wait for our response,” said DG ISPR.
The DG ISPR described the whole situation by saying that last night Pakistan Air Force (PAF) was alert and challenged Indian fighter jets when they tried to enter Pakistani territory from Sialkot and Lahore border with an aim to target civilian population.
“During this, two of their formations were picked in Bahawalpur sector and Muzaffarabad sector from Kiran Valley. As our third team challenged them, they had crossed the LoC, as we challenged them, they released their payload and flied back,” said DG ISPR.
He added that Indian Air Force’s approaching of the border, the challenge and their return only took four minutes.
The military’s spokesman maintained that the Indian claim of killing over 300 terrorists and staying within Pakistani territory in 21 minutes is entirely false as anyone can see that there is no evidence of any casualty or rubble at the alleged “attack” site.
“They shouldn’t make such tall claims, they can’t stay within the Pakistani territory for 21 minutes, we dare them to come and try to stay within Pakistani airspace for 21 minutes,” said Asif Ghafoor.
Asif Ghafoor was of the view that Pakistan was not surprised but can surprise India as it will now respond differently and all the pillars of the state will be on one page regarding the response as “Pakistan is a democracy” unlike India.
