Pakistan's National Security Committee, led by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, has authorized the country's armed forces to undertake retaliatory actions following a series of Indian airstrikes on Pakistani territory. The decision was made in response to what Pakistan described as 'unprovoked, cowardly and unlawful' attacks by India, which resulted in the deaths of 26 civilians. The authorization was announced by the Prime Minister's Office, indicating that the armed forces have been given full authority to respond to the Indian aggression. This move comes after India claimed to have targeted nine Pakistani 'terrorist infrastructure' sites, which they alleged were responsible for planning an attack in Indian-administered Kashmir on April 22 in the tourist hill station of Pahalgam.
