Pakistan has rejected the statements of the Indian media of missile strikes in 15 locations within India, qualifying the “false, without foundation and politically motivated” accusations, while warning that any response from Pakistan will be “visible, noisy and undeniable”, one that the world will witness without the need for confirmation of the Indian media.
In a joint press conference with the Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ishaq Dar, DG ISPR Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry refuted the Indian accusations and presented the Pakistan account of the recent climbing along the eastern border.
“The affirmation of India that Pakistan made missile attacks in 15 sites is a shameless lie. Each missile leaves a fingerprint; if such attacks had occurred, the evidence would be irrefutable,” he said. “Has the Army and the Indian government been living in the 18th century? When will they leave theater and cinema and return to reality?” He commented.
By accusing Modi’s government of manufacturing a narrative to serve internal political interests, he said: “This is a political theater disguised as military reports. The Modi government seems more focused on writing a drama than in dealing with the facts.”
He made fun of the images distributed by the Indian media as supposed evidence of Pakistani strikes, pointing out the absence of any real damage. “At least, the dry fields they are showing could have burned. What they are presenting are sterile patches, nothing more,” he said.
DG ISPR emphasized that the Armed Forces of Pakistan remain completely alert and capable of defending the country against any aggression. “Yes and when Pakistan responds, it will be unmistakable. It will not hide in rhetoric or in the media, it will be visible and noisy, and the world will know without waiting for the coverage of Indian news.”
He revealed that four projectiles were launched, most likely missiles, from Aadhampur, India. One landed in Amritsar, while two crossed the international border towards Pakistani airspace. One of these was intercepted and demolished in Dinga, Punjab, where forensic investigations are underway.
In addition, he said that three projectiles fell within the Indian territory, which suggests operational errors by the Indian forces. “Our eastern border is under constant surveillance. Each moving object is tracked and, if necessary, neutralized,” he added.
Lieutenant General Chaudhry also challenged the credibility of India, asking how a country that claims to have intercepted missile attacks in 15 sites could not avoid the fall of five of his own combat planes for Pakistan. “The losses of India themselves expose the hollowness of their statements. His narrative is not maintained under scrutiny,” he said.
He called the accusations of India of Pakistani attacks against “strategically false” military facilities, stating that the real intention was to divert attention from internal instability and the increase in tensions within India.
“This manufactured crisis is a detour. In the last 24 hours, the acts of sabotage aimed at Pakistan from Islamabad to Karachi have been shameful and deserve a global conviction,” he said.
India using the conflict to enliven the communal divisions: DPM
Dar echoed the comments of DG ISPR, describing the missile launches of India as a “malicious and deliberate provocation.” He confirmed that three projectiles landed in Amritsar, and one entered the Pakistani airspace before being shot down.
“This act is designed to falsely imply Pakistan in attacks against Indian civilians and to inflame tensions within Punjab Indio, especially among the SIJ community,” he said, adding: “Such tactics are in line with the Strategy of the Hindutva regime of outsourcing the internal struggle.”
Highlighting the deep cultural and historical bonds between the Panjab Pakistani and the Indian Punjab, it emphasized that Pakistan has no intention of jeopardizing civilians through the border.
“Pakistan categorically denies any action that can damage the Sij or civilians in the Punjab Indio. Our commitment to peace is still firm, despite India’s attempts to cause conflicts.”
The DPM also declared that several armed Indian drones had violated Pakistani airspace, attacked to civil and military places. A drone hit the Cricket Rawalpindi stadium, a start to the HBL PSL XX, in what he called “a deliberate attempt to threaten national and foreign players.”
“These drones were neutralized, but not before one marked a civilian, he injured four others and injured the army staff,” he said.
Despite these provocations, Giving emphasized that Pakistan has acted with restrictions and responsibility according to international law and the UN Charter. “There is no need for public panic. Our armed forces are attentive and fully prepared. The recent confrontation, in which the Pakistan Air Force hired 75 to 80 Indian planes, is a testimony of our preparation,” he said.
He concluded with a firm warning, saying: “Pakistan reserves the right to respond to this illegal aggression, at the moment, the place and the way of choosing. Any additional adventure will encounter a quick and decisive response.”
