A day after the Indian Army launched 'punitive fire assaults' on Pakistani positions across the Line of Control, Pakistan Air Force (PAF) fighter jets Mirage flew close to the Siachen glacier.

"Jet fighters of Pakistan Air Force (PAF) made flights near Siachen Glacier on Wednesday morning. All of its forward operating bases have been made fully operational," Pakistani media reported.

According to Samaa.tv, Pakistan Chief of Air Staff Sohail Aman paid a visit to the forward airbase in Skardu and was accompanied by top leadership of the Pakistan Air Force.

A fighter squadron carried out higher and lower altitude flights and the Chief of Air Staff also met the pilots and technical staff of the fighting force, reports said. Pakistan Air Chief Sohail Aman himself flew a Mirage jet.

According to GEO news, Aman stated that any aggression by the enemy will be remembered by the coming generations.

Talking to media at the airbase, the air chief claimed no situation is difficult for the PAF. "The nation should not worry about the enemy’s statements," he said, adding that Pakistan is a peace loving nation but is ready to face all challenges.

However, India Air Force (IAF) has categorically rejected Pakistan's claims of flying jet fighters over Siachen on the Indian side.

A day ago, Indian Army released a video of the military action which showed some structures in a forested area crumbling in a heap under the impact of repeated shelling.

Though the Indian Army did not give much operational details of the retributive assault across the Line of Control (LoC) against Pakistan Army positions in Naushera sector of Jammu and Kashmir which were "aiding" infiltration, sources in the force said the strike was carried out on May 9, nine days after two Indian security personnel were beheaded.

"A recent action by our troops in the Naushera Sector has caused some damage to the Pak Army posts, which are supporting infiltrations. This is part of our overall strategy to counter terrorism," Additional Director General of Public Information Maj Gen A K Narula told reporters.

Pakistan Army, however, dismissed as "false", its Indian counterpart's assertion of destroying its posts in the Naushera sector.
