A number of Indian military aircraft violated not only the LoC but also entered Pakistan’s airspace up to Balakot in Khyber Paktunkhwa. They returned without the loss of any aircraft sending the message that they could take the sort of action any time with impunity. China which is Pakistan’s tried and tested ally has urged both countries after the Indian intrusion to exercise restraint. This is a sound advice which should lead everyone to discourage war cries. The embarrassing incident should make those who take decisions realise the danger posed by the presence of terrorist networks on Pakistan’s territory.
