In the wake of India’s unprovoked and cowardly air strikes on civilian populations across Pakistan and Azad Jammu & Kashmir, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on summoned the Indian Chargé d’Affaires to deliver a stern demarche, condemning what it called a flagrant act of aggression and a grave violation of international law.
According to the official statement issued by the Foreign Office, the Indian envoy was summoned to protest the indiscriminate targeting of populated areas by Indian forces, which led to the tragic deaths and injuries of several civilians, including women and children. The attacks were carried out under the cover of darkness, targeting non-combatants in what Pakistan described as a deliberate and desperate provocation.
“India’s naked aggression represents a blatant breach of Pakistan’s sovereignty and a shocking disregard for human life,” the statement said, adding that such hostile behavior defies the UN Charter, established norms of international conduct, and the fundamental principles of inter-state relations. Pakistan categorically rejected the Indian government’s fabricated justifications, terming them a transparent attempt to mask its militaristic and expansionist agenda.
The Indian side was warned in unequivocal terms that such irresponsible conduct poses a direct threat to peace and stability in South Asia.
Overnight, Indian forces attempted to escalate hostilities by launching strikes deep into Pakistani territory. However, their aggression was swiftly and decisively repelled. Pakistan’s Armed Forces shot down five Indian warplanes, including three Rafale jets, destroyed multiple military installations, and forced Indian troops to raise white flags at the Churha Complex along the Line of Control — a symbolic and strategic admission of defeat.
Information Minister Attaullah Tarar confirmed in an early morning briefing that Indian troops, unable to withstand Pakistan’s precision response, had surrendered at several forward positions. “Their white flags tell the story of their failure,” he said. “The Pakistan Army has dealt a crushing blow to the enemy, taking out key posts and inflicting heavy losses.”
Military operations against Indian positions remain ongoing, with credible reports indicating further significant damage to Indian assets. Pakistan reiterated its resolve to defend its territorial integrity and protect its people from any future acts of aggression.
