MUZAFFARABAD -UNS/TV Report: Pakistan army, in a befitting reply to Indian aggression, forced it to surrender. The Indian army raised a white flag at the Churha Complex along the Line of Control early Wednesday.
Pakistan Air Force joined the operation and downed five Rafael jets and Indian army and media admitted the loss. Pakistan army, in response to Indian missile strike late night, inflicted heavy damage on enemy posts along the Line of Control.
India, like it did in 1965, attacked Pakistan in the darkness of night, and suffered a massive damage at the hands of alert Pakistan army.
Information Minister Atta Tarar told media early morning that India had waved a white flag at the Line of Control and “accepted defeat”.
“They have been forced to wave a white flag,” Tarar said. Pakistan state television, PTV, also shared footage of a white flag hoisted seemingly on top of a structure.
Tarar said that Pakistan army has destroyed “several” posts of the Indian army across the border.
He recalled that Pakistan had offered to probe the Pahalgam attack but India “conducted attack and then fled”.
Tarar said Pakistan did not target any civilians in India in its retaliatory actions.
The Amercian news agency, The Associated Press, quoted Indian army officials as saying that at least three civilians were killed in shelling by Pakistani troops in Indian-occupied Kashmir.
Reuters adds: “All of these engagements have been done as a defensive measure,” military spokesperson Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said. “Pakistan remains a very responsible state. However, we will take all the steps necessary for defending the honour, integrity and sovereignty of Pakistan, at all cost.”
Islamabad called the assault a “blatant act of war” and said it had informed the UN Security Council that Pakistan reserved the right to respond appropriately to Indian aggression.
