Iran launched a series of missile and drone attacks on Pakistan amid the deepening crisis in West Asia. The strikes, purportedly targeting Sunni militant groups in Pakistan, have sparked a diplomatic crisis between Tehran and Islamabad. Pakistan, in a strong condemnation, warns of severe consequences, escalating tensions in the region.
In this episode of 'The News9 Plus Show,' Editor Sandeep Unnithan and Aditya Raj Kaul are joined by Major General Sanjay Mestin (R) and Professor Swaran Singh from JNU to delve into the reasons behind the attack and the potential for a regional escalation. The strikes, focusing on two Baluchi militant group bases in Pakistan, have raised fears of unrest in the region.
As the diplomatic fallout unfolds, Pakistan takes the unprecedented step of expelling the Iranian ambassador and recalling its envoy from Tehran, further intensifying the standoff. With Pakistan now facing strained relations with three of its four neighbours - Afghanistan, India, and Iran - the situation raises crucial questions about the geopolitical dynamics in the area.
