Sharing further details of the damage, DG ISPR said India targeted the Nauseri Dam structure of the Neelum-Jhelum Hydropower Project, terming the actions an “unacceptable and a dangerous escalation”.
“Is India trying to damage the water of Pakistan’s people? Does it know the consequences and meaning of this? […] Do international norms and war laws allow you to target the water reservoirs, dams and hydropower structures?” he asked.
“During this cowardly act, many national and international flights were in the air and thousands of lives were put in grave danger,” the military spokesperson highlighted.
“At that time, there were 57 international flights operating inside Pakistan’s airspace,” he stated, adding that the consequences of any of those being hit “perhaps did not cross the minds of those who were undertaking this senseless aggression”.
