Tensions between India and Pakistan have escalated to a dangerous level. After Pakistan claimed that India launched missile and drone attacks on key military bases — including Nur Khan, Shorkot, and Murid — Islamabad has now responded with missile strikes of its own. The Pakistani military has warned that major Indian regions such as Delhi, Gujarat, and Rajasthan may be among the potential targets.

In a live televised briefing, Pakistan’s military spokesperson Lt. Gen. Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry confirmed that Pakistani air defenses successfully intercepted multiple incoming Indian missiles. He further stated that Pakistan retains the right to respond, and that retaliation would be “measured and precise.”
Meanwhile, Indian officials have remained silent, and no formal confirmation or denial has been issued from New Delhi.
Missile Strikes on Key Airbases in Pakistan
India reportedly targeted:
- Nur Khan Airbase (near Rawalpindi) – Close to Pakistan Army HQ.
- Shorkot Rafiqui Airbase – An important operational base in Punjab.
- Murid Airbase – A sensitive installation in northern Punjab.
Despite these aggressive moves, no major destruction or casualties have been officially reported by Pakistan.
Pakistan’s Missile Response – Delhi, Gujarat, Rajasthan May Be Targets
Following the Indian attack, Pakistan is said to have launched its own missile strikes toward Indian military infrastructure. Defense analysts believe that Delhi, Gujarat, and Rajasthan — home to important Indian airbases and command centers — could be on the list of potential retaliation targets.
Unofficial sources suggest missile movements near the India-Pakistan border, with increased surveillance activity and troop movement in Punjab and Sindh regions.
“Pakistan will not tolerate any violation of its sovereignty. Our response will be decisive and within our right to self-defense,” said a senior Pakistani defense official.
Statements from Pakistani Military & Governmen
Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has summoned senior Indian diplomats in protest. In a press release, the Pakistani government emphasized that any further provocation from India would receive a strong response.
“We are a nuclear power, but we seek peace — not war. However, any attempt to destabilize Pakistan will be met with full force,” said Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari.
International Reaction to India Pakistan Conflict
As the situation escalates, global powers including the United Nations, United States, China, and Saudi Arabia have urged both countries to de-escalate immediately. The UN Secretary-General has offered to mediate and called the missile exchanges “extremely dangerous” for regional and global peace.
CNN, BBC, and Al Jazeera are reporting the situation as a “developing crisis,” with real-time coverage and diplomatic pressure building internationally.
