Srinagar: All Parties Hurriyat Conference has appreciated Pakistan’s strong response to recent aggressive and provocative statements by Indian leadership.

According to Radio Pakistan, APHC spokesperson Abdul Rashid Minhas stated that Pakistan’s response has unsettled the Indian leadership, which is now resorting to hostile rhetoric to cover up its failures and divert public attention. The APHC spokesperson, while rejecting the provocative statements by the Indian leadership, reaffirmed that Jammu and Kashmir remains an internationally recognized disputed territory.

Minhas emphasized that India is maintaining its occupation of Kashmir solely through military force and is engaged in what he described as a lost war in the territory. The situation in the region remains tense as the conflict continues.

Meanwhile, a 55-year-old woman was martyred after being deliberately hit by a vehicle of the Indian Police in the Chhatroo area of Kishtwar district. This incident has added to the growing tensions and highlighted the ongoing struggles faced by the local population.

Additionally, Indian forces’ personnel continue to conduct widespread cordon and search operations and raids across multiple districts of the held valley, exacerbating the already volatile situation.
