MUZAFFARABAD – Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif declared Pakistan’s triumph in the recent confrontation with India as the “briefest yet most effective war,” silencing doubters of Pakistan’s conventional military strength. While addressing families of martyrs at a compensation ceremony, PM Shehbaz praised the unwavering courage of the Armed Forces and people of AJK, saying the nation’s unity, faith, and decisive military response had exposed India’s aggression and secured Pakistan’s honour on all fronts.
Highlighting key moments of the conflict, the premier credited COAS Field Marshal Asim Munir’s leadership, the success of Al-Fatah missiles, and the downing of six Indian fighter jets. “This victory is a message to the world: Pakistan’s resolve and defensive capabilities are unmatched,” he stated, while reaffirming hope that “the day will dawn when Kashmir becomes part of Pakistan, Insha Allah.”
