Pakistan warns India: 'Swift, calibrated, decisive' response to any attack

• Pakistan's Defence Minister Khawaja Asif warned of a "swift, calibrated, and decisive" response to any attack.
• Asif's remarks came in response to India's Defence Minister Rajnath Singh's statement about "unprecedented and decisive" action against any misadventure.
• Singh claimed India destroyed terrorist hideouts in Pakistan after the April 2025 Pahalgam terror attack and brought Pakistan to its knees in 22 minutes during Operation Sindoor.
• Asif dismissed India's rhetoric as "strategic anxiety" and an attempt to externalize internal fragility and provoke escalation.
• Pakistan reiterated its commitment to peace but affirmed its absolute resolve to defend sovereignty, warning of a more forceful response next time.
