ISLAMABAD: (Web Desk) In the wake of India’s unprovoked missile attack on Pakistan, the country has vowed to deliver a devastating response that will far exceed anything India anticipates.

Pakistan’s Defence Minister, Khawaja Asif, made a bold and unwavering statement, asserting that Pakistan was fully prepared for such an attack and that this was not a surprise to the nation.

Pakistan’s resolve was clear: “We knew India would resort to this kind of cowardly attack, and we were ready to defend our sovereignty with everything at our disposal,” said Khawaja Asif in a televised statement following the missile strikes. India, in its desperation, had targeted innocent civilian populations, but Pakistan will not back down, he emphasized.

Pakistan’s military responded swiftly and decisively. Five Indian fighter jets were shot down in retaliation, marking a clear and strong message that any aggression against Pakistan will be met with force. In addition, several Indian soldiers have been captured, further escalating the stakes. Pakistan s military has shown its readiness and capability to protect its airspace and defend its people.

"Pakistan’s military forces are on full alert, and we will not hesitate to take any action necessary to safeguard our sovereignty," Khawaja Asif said. The country has demonstrated to the world that its defense capabilities are second to none, and it will not allow India’s provocations to go unchecked.

The Indian missile attack also resulted in a tragic loss of life. In Ahmedpur East, an innocent child was killed, while a woman and a man sustained severe injuries. Pakistan has condemned these attacks, calling them "cowardly and reprehensible". The loss of innocent lives has only strengthened Pakistan’s determination to respond with greater force to protect its citizens.

Khawaja Asif reiterated that Pakistan will never compromise on its sovereignty. The country’s leadership has made it clear that it will stand firm against India’s aggression, and no external force will force Pakistan to back down. "This is not just a military response; it is a message to the world that Pakistan will not allow its territorial integrity to be violated," he said. Pakistan s military and leadership are united in their resolve to protect the nation s independence and dignity, regardless of the cost.

Following the attacks, Pakistan has put all its security forces on high alert to ensure no further aggression goes unchecked. The country’s airspace was immediately closed for 48 hours, signaling its readiness to take on any potential threats that may come from India. In the meantime, Pakistan has urged its citizens to stay calm, avoid rumors, and trust official government statements for guidance. The nation’s security forces have also been mobilized to safeguard affected areas and provide assistance to the injured.

The message to India is clear: “This is just the beginning. You will face a response far stronger than you expect, and your actions will not go unpunished.” Pakistan has shown the world that it will not be intimidated by aggression and will stand up to any threat, no matter the scale. The country is not only committed to protecting its people but also ensuring that regional peace and stability are maintained in the face of any adversarial actions.

Pakistan has called on the international community to hold India accountable for its reckless actions and to work towards preventing further escalation in the region. Pakistan is committed to peaceful solutions, but it has also demonstrated that it will not hesitate to take necessary measures to protect its sovereignty. The situation remains tense, but Pakistan’s resolve is stronger than ever.

As tensions continue to rise, the world watches closely. Will India back down, or is this the start of a broader conflict? Pakistan has made it clear—they will not be pushed around. This is a critical moment in South Asian history, and Pakistan’s strength and resilience will be tested in the coming days. Stay tuned for updates as the situation develops.
