Fatah Missile Test: Pakistan’s Provocative Move Sparks Tension with India After Pahalgam Attack

International News: Pakistan once again demonstrated its military power and tested the surface -to -surface missile. The purpose of this test was to ensure the operational readiness of their soldiers and to certify the advanced navigation system and accuracy of the missile. This test has been done when the tension between India and Pakistan has already increased, especially after the Pahalgam terror attack.

India's concern: "dangerous increase

India officials have called it a "absurd provocative" from Pakistan. He says that this activity of Pakistan reflects a dangerous increase against India and can be seen as "action under self -defense" by India. This step of Pakistan, especially at a time when tension in the relationship between the two countries has increased, has become a matter of concern for India.

Pakistan's military strategy: tries to increase stress

Pakistan had announced a successful test of Abdali ballistic missile by its army a few days ago. The missile was tested under Exercise Indus. Pakistan's Defense Minister also commented that Pakistan is strengthening its military forces in view of the possibility of "military attack" by India. At the same time, the Pakistan Army has intensified military exercises in the Arabian Sea and has also increased violation of ceasefire over the Line of Control (LOC).

India's response: vigilance and preparation

India has strongly opposed these military activities of Pakistan. Indian security officials said that this step of Pakistan is just an inspiration, and if any other step is taken by Pakistan, India will see it as a retaliation. Indian forces have responded to a quick and balanced manner to ceasefire violations by Pakistan on the border.

Pakistan's strategy to increase stress

Pakistan is continuously issuing its missile tests and "notice to airman" (NOTAM) to avoid Indian military attacks. However, the impact of these notices has not been seen yet, as none of these missile testing or military activity has landed at the ground level. Following the notices issued by Pakistan, India needs to be vigilant towards these activities.

What will be the next step?

After these frequent military trials of Pakistan, now the question arises whether this growing stress will move towards a major military conflict? Given the risk of nuclear war between India and Pakistan, this is the time to reconsider their strategies for the two countries.
