Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has warned of potential security threats, saying intelligence reports suggest that India may be preparing attacks targeting Pakistani cities.
In a strongly worded statement, the minister said that if even a single civilian is harmed, Pakistan would respond immediately. He did not provide specific details about the alleged threats but emphasized that the country remains alert to any developments.
The remarks come amid heightened regional tensions, with security officials closely monitoring the situation. Analysts note that such statements reflect the fragile security environment in South Asia, where accusations and counter-accusations between the two nuclear-armed neighbours are not uncommon.
No official response has yet been issued by India regarding the claims. Observers have urged caution, stressing the need for verification and restraint to avoid further escalation in the region.
