He said that Indian strikes on Pakistani territory were act of war.
Bilawal added that Pakistan reserves the right to respond under the United Nations charter.
“You attacked us, attacked innocent civilians, children and our land … now you will have to prepare because Pakistan’s answer is yet to come,” he stated.
Reaffirming Pakistan's commitment to peace, Bilawal said, “We are not in favour of war,” but emphasized that the country would defend itself if provoked.
He lauded the response of Pakistan’s armed forces, claiming they acted “bravely, with precision, and in self-defence,” including downing five Indian aircrafts.
He criticized India for allegedly spreading misinformation and refusing Pakistan’s offer for an impartial investigation.
