Pakistanis vowed to make India “pay a huge price” following cross-border strikes between the two nuclear-armed rivals on Wednesday (May 7).
Tensions flared sharply on Wednesday as India launched strikes on targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir, triggering the worst cross-border violence in over 20 years between the two states.
“God willing, they will have to pay a huge price for this. In the coming time, we will give them a befitting reply,” said Lahore resident Malik Zahid.
“India has made a grave mistake by provoking Pakistan—this is no small matter,” said Mohd Saleem, another resident in Lahore. “This misstep will cost them dearly. India has now set itself on a path of destruction.”
