It was a tense Saturday as Pakistan’s hitherto only peaceful border was also marred by differences with the southern neighbours.
Early Saturday morning, Pakistani forces started firing across the Gadani area into the territory of the Arabian Sea.
“The situation is under complete control. InshAllah, our boys won’t let even an inch of the homeland come under threat till a diplomatic solution has been reached,” said Syed Riaz-ul-Hassan of the ministry of defence.
“The Arabian Sea had been making inroads into Pakistani soil and when confronted on an international level, it claimed that the cause was global warming,” said Sagheer Ahmed, official spokesperson at the Foreign Office. “But we know that there is no such thing. We have evidence that they have the support of the Indian Ocean.”
The defence ministry has requested for the government to defer the passage of the Finance Bill for the fiscal year 2016-17 as newer expenditures need to be taken into account given the hostilities on our southern borders.
The Arabian Sea was unavailable for comment.
