Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry addressed a press conference on the first anniversary of Marka-e-Haq, highlighting Pakistan’s military response and strategic developments.
According to ISPR, tensions escalated on May 6–7 last year after India made what Pakistan described as baseless and unfounded allegations following an incident in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir. The situation reportedly led to an attack on Pakistan, which was met with a strong and decisive response.
The military spokesperson stated that Pakistan responded with full force, resulting in significant losses for the opposing side and demonstrating Pakistan’s defensive capabilities.
ISPR said the conflict, which lasted more than 80 hours, came to an end on May 10 after diplomatic intervention by the United States. During the confrontation, multiple Indian aircraft and drones were reportedly downed.
The statement further described the outcome as reinforcing Pakistan’s position as a “net security stabiliser” in the region.
Officials noted that the events of Marka-e-Haq remain a significant milestone in Pakistan’s military history and continue to shape national defense preparedness and strategic outlook.
The press conference is part of commemorations marking the first anniversary of the conflict, and further details are expected to be released as the briefing continues.
