According to Indian news agency ANI, a PAF F-16 that “violated” Indian airspace was shot down in retaliatory fire by India. It is also reporting that a parachute was seen as the aircraft was going down. However, the ISPR chief has denied this. He said F-16s were not used by the air force in this operation.
“We don’t want war. We have suffered tremendously,” said State Minister of Interior Sherhryar Afridi at a conference in Islamabad. He said the PAF shooting down Indian jets will make it clear to India to “never challenge us”.
Flight operations at all airports in the country have been suspended. Pakistan’s airspace has been closed and a high alert issued to security officials.
The ISPR chief addressed the media Wednesday afternoon and said Pakistan could have fired at targets that could have resulted in major human casualties but chose not to. He said Pakistan targeted six non-military targets in Indian Kashmir and engaged them from its own airspace. We chose targets that would not result in human casualties and collateral damage.
