Could Pakistan Deploy a Nuclear Strike on Israel? Why Shaheen-3 — the So-Called “India Killer” — Is Now in Focus

General Mohsin Rezai of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) has made a sensational claim about Pakistan amid the ongoing war with Israel. The Iranian general said that Pakistan has offered Iran that if Israel fires a missile equipped with a nuclear bomb on the Shia country, Islamabad will also retaliate with nuclear weapons. After this statement from Iran, Pakistan has shrugged it off. Not only this, Pakistan has closed its borders with Iran. Even after this, the Iranians are firm on their statement. Sources say that Pakistan wants to give Iran the Shaheen-3 missile, which can strike at medium distances. This missile is capable of carrying out a nuclear attack on Israel. Let's know the whole matter...

According to the media report, intelligence sources say that Pakistan wants to give the Shaheen-3 missile to Iran. Pakistan claims that this missile can carry out a nuclear attack up to 2750 km. Pakistan has made it, keeping India in mind. Pakistan claims that it is capable of targeting any part of India. At the same time, Pakistani army experts say that if the Shaheen 3 missile is fired against Israel, it can reach Tel Aviv in just 12 minutes. Not only this, but Israeli air defence systems also cannot stop it.

Arms cooperation between Iran and Pakistan

Earlier, Iranian General Rezai had revealed in a conversation with government TV that Pakistan has offered him that if Israel uses a nuclear missile against Tehran, then Islamabad will respond with a nuclear attack. Sources say that this move of Iran and Pakistan is being seen as a part of the unity of Islamic countries. There is strong evidence that military and missile transfer cooperation is taking place between Iran and Pakistan. Pakistan's Defense Minister Ishaq Dar has declared that we stand with Iran in every way.

Pakistan's PM Shahbaz Sharif has offered support against Israel in a phone call with the President of Iran. He has also supported Iran's right to self-defence. Pakistan has called a meeting of the OIC, a group of Islamic countries, so that Muslim countries can be united against Israel. Pakistan has called on countries around the world to end relations with Israel. By doing this, Pakistan wants to become the leader of Muslim countries.

India on Pakistan's target

Recently, Pakistan's Army Chief met with Iranian leaders and announced an increase in defence cooperation. Actually, there is a 959 km long border line between Iran and Pakistan which connects partly the Balochistan region. Pakistan wants to curb the Baloch rebels by pleasing Iran. Pakistan alleges that India helps the Balochs through Iran. India has taken over the Chabahar port, which also upsets Pakistan. Pakistan wants to put pressure on India through Iran and wants to secure energy sources. Iran is the first country that recognised Pakistan.
