ISLAMABAD: Air Vice Marshal Aurangzeb said that Pakistan always remained active and prepared, both in times of peace and war, and whenever India violated the country’s border, the Pakistan Air Force gave a befitting response. While briefing Pakistan’s response to the Indian Air Force, he said the PAF’s response was based “on time and place of their choosing”, displaying “bold, aggressive and unwavering resolve of the brave military leadership”. “I must appreciate the leadership. Our leadership was resolute and clear in giving instructions to all of us, and that is perhaps why they were so sure about what we had to do.
“With unprecedented reach, precision and lethality, while avoiding collateral, the PAF hit the maximum number of IAF airfields in a single operational package since 1971 because they crossed the international border,” the officer said.“While reestablishing deterrence, Pakistan negated the setting of a new normal under the hegemonistic design of a supremacist regime through a swift and effective response.”
