Islamabad:
Chief of Army Staff (Coas) Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir on Monday issued a strict warning in which he said that any misadventure or violation of Pakistan’s territorial integrity of an aggressor would be met with a “deeply hurt and more than mutual response” – delivered without restrictions or hesitation.
The Army Chief, who approached the candidate people at the National Defense University (NDU), Islamabad, said that India’s claims of external support to Pakistan during Operation Bunyanum Marsoos reflected Delhi’s chronic reluctance to recognize Pakistan’s original capacity.
According to Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), media wing of the military, Field visited Marshal Asim Munir NDU, where he approached the candidates for the National Security and War Course, who included participants from all services.
In his address, the army chief highlighted the evolving nature of warlings and emphasized the centrality of mental emergency preparedness, operational clarity and institutional professionalism in navigation of complex strategic issues.
He repeated Pakistan’s principle attitude that any misunderstanding or attempt to undermine Pakistan’s sovereignty or violation of territorial integrity would “continue to be reflexively fulfilled with a quick and resolute” response without restrictions or inhibitions.
“Any attempt to target our population centers, military bases, financial nodes and ports will instantly invoke a ‘deeply hurtful and more than mutual response’. Onus of escalation will square on the strategically blind arrogant aggressor who fails to see the serious consequences of such provocative acts against a supreme nuclear state,”
Field Marshal Asim noted that India’s inability to achieve its declared military targets during its operation Sindoor and the subsequent attempt to rationalize his deficit through intricate logic spoke to the Bind of its lack of operational emergency preparedness and strategic foresight.
“Insinuations on external support in Pakistan’s successful operation Bunyanum Marsoos are irresponsible and actually wrong and reflect a chronic reluctance to recognize original capacity and institutional resilience developed through decades of strategic caution,” he said.
Operation Bunyanum Marsoos refers to Pakistan’s thundering military reaction on May 10 to India’s Operation Sindoor, who began with missile tremors in Pakistan on May 7 and killed dozens of civilians, including women and children. Operation Bunyanum Marsoos hit India’s 26 military targets.
Last week, the Deputy Chief of the Indian Army claimed that China gave Pakistan “live input” on the most important Indian attitudes during the four-day conflict. However, Secretary General Rahul Singh did not elaborate on how he received this information.
Field Marshal Asim said that naming of other states as participants in the “purely bilateral military combustion was also a dirty attempt to play camp policy” and desperately tried that India remained the recipient of greater geopolitical competition as the so-called net security provider in a region that became more and more worn by its hegemonic and extremist Hindutva ideology.
“Unlike India’s strategic behavior that rests on parochial self -adjustment, Pakistan has forged lasting partnerships based on principle diplomacy, rooted in mutual respect and peace and established himself to be a stabilizer in the region,” he added, according to ISPR.
“Warriors are not won through Medary Theories, imported smart hardware or political sloganing, but through faith, professional competence, operational clarity, institutional strength and national determination,” the army chief noted.
In the address, the army chief paid tribute to the role of the leading institutions such as NDU in improving civilian-military synergy and care future leadership capable of mitigating hybrid, conventional and subconventional threats with poise and determination.
He ended by expressing full confidence in the professionalism, morality and readiness of the impact -cured armed forces in Pakistan and urged the candidates to remain steadfast in the values of integrity, selfless service and unshakable commitment to the nation.
