Asim Munir Says 'Divine Intervention' Felt During Op Sindoor
Pakistan's defence chief General Asim Munir claims 'divine help' occurred during Op Sindoor and urges Afghanistan's Taliban to choose between Pakistan and the TTP, signaling high-stakes regional tension.
Pakistan's Chief of Defence Staff General Asim Munir has claimed that Pakistan experienced what he described as divine help during the May confrontation with India in Op Sindoor. He said this during a speech addressing security concerns and reiterated the state's resolve during the days of intense fighting that followed Indian strikes on terror targets in May.
The CDF added that no one could order a jihad in an Islamic state other than the state itself, a remark underscoring the primacy of the Pakistani state in directing security actions.
Munir also urged Afghanistan's Taliban regime to choose between Pakistan and the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan, stating that Afghans constitute the majority of militants infiltrating Pakistan. The remarks highlight deep concerns about cross-border militancy and the evolving security dynamics in the region.
Observers will be watching how these comments influence regional diplomacy and security policy, amid a tense climate between Pakistan, India, and militant groups along the border.
