Pakistan’s army has been put on high alert after reports alleged India was preparing to launch an attack on the de facto border that divides the disputed Kashmir region between the two countries.
Pakistani Dawn newspaper quoted “informed sources” as saying on Wednesday that the Indian military had plans to launch the attack after it recently faced a humiliating defeat in Ladakh and Dokalam in the volatile region.
The daily said Pakistan’s Armed Forces had been put on high alert to face any “untoward situation.”
The sources said a “false flag operation” was also being planned by India to divert attention from they said were several of the country’s internal issues, including protests by farmers, the mistreatment of minorities, and alleged atrocities committed by the Indian forces in Kashmir.
