ISLAMABAD — Pakistan’s armed forces said they are targeting military sites in India after India fired missiles at three air bases in Pakistan’s Punjab province early Saturday, bringing the nuclear-armed rivals closer to war.

Appearing on local news channels, Pakistan’s Lt. General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said India targeted Nur Khan air base in Rawalpindi, Murid air base in Chakwal and Rafiqui air base near Shorkot with air-to-surface missiles. Most of the missiles, he said in a later appearance, were intercepted and there were no casualties or damage.

India’s actions, he said, were “pushing the whole region toward dangerous war,” and he vowed a firm response.

The media wing of Pakistan’s military, soon after, said the armed forces were targeting Indian military sites and claimed to have struck multiple locations.

The Indian government did not immediately issue a response.
The latest moves pushed the region further toward an all-out war between the archrivals, who have been engaged in hostilities since May 7.

We might be about to see thousands of explosive goat bungholes go off if anyone was watching what the Israelis did with the pagers.

Noteworthy. India has a no first use policy on nuclear weapons. Pakistan does not.

Why was Pakistan ever allowed to have nuclear weapons if we’re trying so hard to not allow Iran to have them?

If Ukraine-Russia never would have happened under Trump and not his war…what’s his reasoning now?

If you’re shooting missles at each other, you’re already AT war.

Technically they have been at war since 1947.

Its complicated and Im certainly no expert, but Russia was in Afghanistan, Pakistan was our base of operations against them. At the same time we were trying to keep Pakistan out of China's orbit. In other words they were not exactly an ally but we're at least nominally on our side and we wanted to keep them there. We didn't have much leverage.

The other thing is it was a surprise. They had been working on a bomb and not getting anywhere until a Pakistani scientist working for a European company started funneling knowhow to them. All of a sudden Pakistan was testing a bomb.

Part three is India had gotten the bomb just a couple of years before and India was somewhat in the Russian orbit so it was seen as a bit of cold war stalemating.
