Rawalpindi (Web Desk): Director General Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) Major General Asif Ghafoor on Tuesday said accusations by the Indian army chief of an alleged terror camp and infiltrations are a pretext for a false flag operation against Pakistan.
In a series of tweets, spokesperson of the military’s media wing said “Irresponsible statements by Indian military commanders particularly about AJ&K are expression of their frustration due to their failure to handle situation in IOJ&K and attempts to divert world’s attention from Indian state terrorism and siege of IOJ&K,”
“Accusations of infiltration/presence of alleged terrorists camps are pretext for a false flag operation/misadventure which if tried shall have serious consequences for regional peace,” he said.
The DG ISPR added Pakistan Armed Forces are fully prepared to respond to any aggression or misadventure regardless of cost.
Earlier on Tuesday, Foreign Office (FO) spokesperson Dr Mohammad Faisal strongly rejected baseless statement of the Indian Army Chief alleging "reactivation of terror camp" in Balakot.
The FO Spokesperson said that the Indian allegations of "infiltration" from Pakistan reflect a desperate attempt to divert international attention from the humanitarian nightmare in occupied Kashmir being perpetrated by Indian occupation forces.
Dr Mohammad Faisal said that India would neither succeed in misleading the world community through these diversionary tactics nor will India be able to hide its unabated state-terrorism in Indian Occupied Kashmir.
Indian Army Chief Bipin Rawat had alleged a day earlier that a “terror camp in Balakot had been reactivated and 500 militants were waiting to infiltrate India”.
