After the Indian Army carried out missile strikes early Wednesday on nine terror targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that a resolute response is already underway. He said that the entire nation stands united behind its armed forces, and our morale and resolve remain unshaken.

“The treacherous enemy has launched a cowardly attack on five locations within Pakistan. This heinous act of aggression will not go unpunished. Pakistan reserves the absolute right to respond decisively to this unprovoked Indian attack — a resolute response is already underway. The entire nation stands united behind its armed forces, and our morale and resolve remain unshaken,” Sharif said in a post on X.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with the brave officers and soldiers of Pakistan. The people of Pakistan and its forces are fully prepared to confront and defeat any threat with our strength and determination. The enemy will never be allowed to achieve its malicious aims,” he further stated.

The remarks came as Pakistan confirmed that Indian missile strikes had hit three locations – Muzaffarabad, Kotli, and the Ahmed East area of Bahawalpur. Meanwhile, Jammu and Kashmir is on high alert following the airstrikes, hampering flight service to and from Jammu and Kashmir.
