Pakistan: We respond to any action of India to close water – Mehr News Agency | Iranian and world news

Pakistani Defense Minister Khawaja Mohammad Asif, in the wake of the tensions between the coury and India, after the Kashmir invasion, announced that Islamabad would destroy any structures that India would build water and close it to Pakistan, according to Mehr News Agency.

Following an attack on a group of tourists in Kashmir -corolled Indian -corolled Kashmir, the coury suspended a 4 -year -old water treaty with Islamabad by accusing a neighboring coury of ierference in the incide. This treaty guaraees water supply for 5 % of Pakistani fields.

India has announced that as long as Pakistan “convincing and irreversible does not abandon its support for transboundary terrorism”, the suspension would be in force.

According to Delhi, two of the three attackers attacked tourists in Kashmir were Pakistani. Islamabad has rejected any charges against this issue that any action aimed at stopping the flow of Pakistani water or diverting its path will be considered a “declaration of war”.

“This will be a rape against Pakistan,” said Asif. So if such a structure is built, Pakistan will destroy it.

He added: “Rape and attack are not only a cannon and bullet but also have many manifestations.” One of them is (blocking or diverting water paths) that can lead to death and thirst.

A senior Pakistani defense official said last week following the iensification between the two nuclear states that “the Delhi -based military attack on Islamabad was immine following the deadly attack on tourists in Kashmir.”
