The Director General of the Public Relations Department of the Pakistan Army, Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, said that India had launched missile strikes on Kotli, Bahawalpur and Muzaffarabad, Geo TV channel reported.
"Some time ago… India carried out air strikes on the Subhanullah Mosque in the Ahmed East district of Bahawalpur, Kotli and Muzaffarabad - in three places from the air. All the planes of our Air Force are in the air. This cowardly and shameful attack was carried out from Indian airspace. They have never been allowed to enter Pakistan's airspace," he said.
Chaudhry noted that Pakistan "will respond to this at a time and place of its own choosing."
The Indian Ministry of Defense, in turn, said that the Armed Forces launched Operation Sindur, striking at the terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan. Main theses: During the operation that began, nine targets were attacked; not a single Pakistani military facility was attacked; "the actions were targeted, balanced and did not have an escalatory character"; attacks on terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan followed the "barbaric terrorist attack in Pahalgame".
According to Samaa TV, Pakistan temporarily closed its airspace for 48 hours.
Later, the channel reported that Islamabad carried out a retaliatory missile attack on targets in India.
"In response, Pakistan retaliated and launched missiles at several targets in India," the report said.
