The DG ISPR described the whole situation by saying that last night Pakistan Air Force (PAF) was alert and challenged Indian fighter jets when they tried to enter Pakistani territory from Sialkot and Lahore border with an aim to target civilian population.

“During this, two of their formations were picked in Bahawalpur sector and Muzaffarabad sector from Kiran Valley. As our third team challenged them, they had crossed the LoC, as we challenged them, they released their payload and flied back,” said DG ISPR.

He added that Indian Air Force approached the border, they were challenged by PAF and their return only took four minutes.
