‘Don’t play with fire,’ Pakistan Army warns India

Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Maj General Babar Iftikhar on Wednesday warned India that Pakistan would firmly respond to any misadventure.

Talking to a Geo News programme, Maj General Babar Iftikhar said: “Pakistan is ready to any military adventurism and there will be uncontrollable and unintended consequences.

“Indians saw it’s manifestation last year. Let’s not play with the fire,” Gen Babar said.

The military spokesman rejected the Indian allegations of so-called launchpad and infiltration. He said UN military observers are free to go anywhere here but India has never allowed international media and observers on its side of the border.

The DG ISPR said the situation at the Line of Control is very serious where seven civilians have embraced martyrdom in unprovoked firing by Indian forces only this year.

He said the Indian quadcopters violated Pakistani airspace several times and in recent days we shot down their flying machines.

He said India is targeting innocent women and children in occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

Gen Iftikhar said Indian plans to mount aggression against Pakistan in the next few months to divert the world attention from its failures and embarrassment on multiple fronts including the border issue with Nepal, mismanagement of coronavirus and its dwindling economic situation.

The DG ISPR said the Indian steps in the occupied Jammu and Kashmir have backfired.

He said the whole world is witnessing the worst human rights violations in the occupied territory.

“Prime Minister Imran Khan and Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa have also talked about the Indian false flag operations multiple times.”

He also referred to a recent statement of Gen Bajwa that the future of enduring peace and stability in South Asia hinged on the ability to resolve long pending disputes within the region.
