#Pakistanstrikesback #PAF undertook strikes across LoC from Pakistani airspace. Sole purpose of this action was to demonstrate our right, will and capability for self defence. We do not wish to escalate but are fully prepared if forced into that paradigm#PakistanZindabad

Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi told that he said at a press conference on Tuesday that Pakistan has decided to respond to India's aggression. Now we have responded, he said.
I also told the UN secretary general about India's violation of international law and the UN's own charter, he said. The country is is ready to fulfill its responsibility, said Qureshi. However, he cautioned that Pakistan does not and has never wanted escalation.
War is not and has never been our aim, he said, adding that Pakistan is a peaceful country. Qureshi reminded India that they started this. You put politics ahead of regional peace, he said. He said more details will follow after the National Command Authority meeting today.
The NCA is the authority that makes decisions regarding the command and control of Pakistan’s nuclear weapons. India and Pakistan are both nuclear-armed countries.
The PAF action comes after two Indian aircraft violated the Line of Control and crossed three to four miles into Pakistani territory near Muzzaffarabad before PAF jets scrambled and they turned back. They dropped a payload but no damage was incurred, according to the ISPR chief, who took to Twitter to announce the event.
India, on the other hand, claims to have “completely destroyed” a “terrorist camp” in Balakot by dropping “1,000kg bombs”.
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.
“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 the Allama Iqbal International Airport in Lahore as well as the Faisalabad, Multan and Sialkot airports have been suspended.
