WASHINGTON: Spokesperson for the United States Department of State, John Kirby, refused to acknowledge India's claim of conducting 'surgical strikes' in Pakistan, on Friday.

According to details, John Kirby said that US Secretary of State John Kerry had warned India not to escalate tensions further with Pakistan. Addressing a press briefing in Washington, Kirby said that US was aware of the tense relations between both countries.

"The United States is closely monitoring the situation," he said, with regard to the exchange of fire that took place between India and Pakistan on Thursday.

India had claimed on Thursday that it had conducted surgical strikes inside Pakistan, which was denied vehemently by Islamabad. The ISPR had confirmed that two soldiers had been martyred in the attack by Indian forces across the Line of Control. Pakistan also said that it had given a befitting response to Indian troops.

Tensions have been on the rise between India and Pakistan ever since the Uri attack a couple of weeks ago, in which 17 Indian soldiers were killed. India, without proper investigation, placed blame on Pakistan for being involved in the attack. Pakistan vehemently denied the charge and took to the United Nations Assembly to denounce and condemn Indian atrocities in occupied Kashmir.

Reports had been circulating in the media that India was planning to conduct a surgical strike against Pakistan. However, no evidence was provided by the Indian government that it had indeed conducted a strike of such a nature on Pakistani soil.
 
Even the US has not confirmed that a "surgical strike" has taken place in Pakistan. No one has. The international media outlets have headlines that "India claims to have carried out surgical strikes".

No one believes India's version of the story, or is willing to ratify it. Surely not the reaction India wants from the international community. The international community believes there was cross border firing between the two Armies, not the Indian version that claims that it had nothing to do with the Army, and had to deal with terror camps. Surely an embarrassment for India on the international stage, but great for their domestic public consumption!
 
I think India will do a lot of propaganda just like it does about being victim of terrorism (although she herself is the biggest exporter of cross-border terrorism).

So Pakistan should prepare itself to counter propaganda wars, that India will wage upon us. India does not have the capacity to attack Pakistan without putting her own existence on very high risk.

So all she will do is extreme Goebbel like propaganda!
 
We are baniyas. But you chaps are mature. Restraint is good.

What restraint? They have warned us. Their Defence Minister has promised "Aatmi BUM" sey retaliation ..

Be prepared .. our poor baniya arses are going to "Ghazwa-ed" by Gernail Lal Topi pretty soon and "nuklear "BUMS" are going to rain down in Delhi ...


We should be very very very very very scared .. :pop:
