Pakistan National Security Committee met on Tuesday after Indian Air Force carried out aerial strikes at the Jaih-e-Mohammed terror camps across Line of Control.

Chaired by Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan, it said that “India has committed uncalled aggression to which Pakistan shall respond at the time and place of its choosing,” According to reports.

Pakistan strongly rejected Indian claim of targeting an alleged terrorist camp near Balakot and the claim of heavy casualties.

It said that “once again Indian government has resorted to a self serving, reckless and fictitious claim.”

Earlier, Indian Foreign Secretary Vijay Gokhale confirmed the IAF operation said, “Credible intelligence was received that JeM was attempting another suicide terror attack in various parts of the country, and the fidayeen jihadis were being trained for this purpose. In the face of imminent danger, a preemptive strike became absolutely necessary.”

“In an intelligence led operation in the early hours of today, India struck the biggest training camp of JeM in Balakot. In this operation, a very large number of JeM terrorists, trainers, senior commanders and groups of jihadis who were being trained for fidayeen action were eliminated. This facility at Balakot was headed by MAULANA YOUSUF AZHAR (alias USTAD GHOURI), the brother-in-law of MASOOD AZHAR, Chief of JeM,”he further added.
