This statement came during the 270th corps commanders’ conference, which was led by Army Chief Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir at the GHQ in Rawalpindi, as reported by the military’s media wing, the ISPR.
The forum took a moment to congratulate the army chief on his promotion to Field Marshal, recognizing his strategic insight, strong leadership, and lasting contributions to the nation’s defense.
According to the ISPR, the commanders reaffirmed “Pakistan’s unwavering determination” to protect its sovereignty and territorial integrity against any acts of aggression or mischief.
Reiterating Pakistan’s strategic position, the corps commanders stated: “No one can coerce Pakistan through the use or threat of force. The nation will take all necessary steps to safeguard its vital interests.”
The forum engaged in a thorough discussion about the threats posed by India-backed terrorist groups operating in Balochistan and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa.
In light of its military setbacks following the Pahalgam incident, India—often seen as a victim of terrorism but in reality a perpetrator and a source of regional instability—has increased its use of covert tactics, employing non-state actors to further its destabilization agenda, they noted.
The military leaders firmly resolved that Pakistan will not allow its peace to be jeopardized by terrorism sponsored from outside. The armed forces, working closely with intelligence and law enforcement agencies, will relentlessly pursue all proxies and facilitators of terrorism.
“These hostile elements, trained and funded to create chaos and fear, will be dismantled and defeated with the full strength of our national will and institutional power, Insha’Allah,” they declared.
The forum strongly condemned this brutal act, highlighting its intentional targeting of innocent civilians, especially children, as a shocking breach of all humanitarian standards and international norms,” stated the ISPR.
Additionally, the forum paid heartfelt tribute to all the martyrs of Marka-e-Haq who sacrificed their lives defending the nation against India’s unprovoked aggression. “It reaffirmed that the sacred blood of the Shuhada (martyrs) will not be in vain, and ensuring the safety and security of the people of Pakistan will always be the top priority for the armed forces.”
Participants praised the professionalism, teamwork, bravery, and resilience of Pakistan’s armed forces, along with the steadfast support of the nation, which together successfully repelled aggression with remarkable precision and determination.
“The forum recognized the efforts of Pakistan’s media and information warriors who stood shoulder to shoulder with the state against the onslaught of Indian propaganda, fake news, and war hysteria, while accurately presenting facts and figures to build public trust and combat misinformation,” the ISPR statement concluded.
The top military leaders fully acknowledged the vibrant spirit and significant contributions of the Pakistani youth, whose enthusiasm and love for their country have truly uplifted the national morale and helped shape the national narrative.
