Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir revived anti-India nuclear rhetoric at Abbottabad's Pakistan Military Academy cadet ceremony while his forces face serious Taliban setbacks along Afghanistan's border. Munir claimed "minor provocation" would trigger "decisive" response, threatening to "shatter India's geographic war-space immunity," though Operation Sindoor exposed Pakistan's vulnerabilities by flattening nine terror camps and 11 military bases. Observers view his remarks as deflecting criticism over deteriorating Afghan border security. Munir warned Taliban to act against TTP militants, vowing to "raise to dust" all proxies using Afghanistan as base following Pakistani airstrikes after short-lived ceasefire. He claimed Pakistan demonstrated "remarkable professionalism" during recent India conflict, unsupported by evidence.
