People of Korangi will break any Indian dam on Indus: MQM-P
A demonstration was organised in Korangi by the Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan (MQM-P) against Indian aggression, and in support of Pakistani forces. A large number of officials, workers, and the public, partook in the demonstration.
Addressing the demonstration, Haq Parast Member of the National Assembly, Aamir Moin Pirzada, stated that the people of Korangi stand with their forces, and that if India tries to stop water by suspending the Indus Water Treaty and builds a dam, the people of Korangi will break it, declaring that MQM-P will stand by Pakistani forces.
Member of the Sindh Assembly, Shariq Jamal, stated that the people of Landhi have come to the demonstration in solidarity with Pakistani forces, as India has committed water terrorism by stopping water. He declared that we have the power of faith, and so India should remember that our army and Pakistan are not weak. He further stated that if anyone looks at Pakistan with an evil eye, we will use all the missiles we have made. Meanwhile, member of the Provincial Assembly, Najam Mirza, claimed that the Indian government is misleading its people through false flag operations, and that Pakistan will give a befitting reply to Indian aggression.
Further, Provincial Assembly Member Sikandar Khatun expressed his views, stating that India is targeting Muslims in Kashmir, and now wants to target Pakistan, but Modi's aggressive behavior has awakened a new spirit in the Pakistani nation.

Pakistan says no decision yet to scrap bilateral agreements with India
Listen to article No decision has yet been taken to scrap bilateral agreements with India, Pakistan's foreign ministry said on Thursday – a day after Defence Minister Khawaja Asif claimed that the 1972 Simla Agreement between the two hostile neighbours was a 'dead' document. Responding to media queries, a senior Foreign Office official said that while India's recent actions and statements prompted internal discussions, Pakistan had made no formal or conclusive move to annul any of its bilateral accords with New Delhi. 'At present, there is no formal decision to terminate any bilateral accord,' the official stated, indicating that the existing bilateral agreements, including the Simla Agreement, remain in effect. Read more: Asif declares Simla agreement a 'dead document' The clarification came a day after Defence Minister Khawaja Asif, during an interview with a private television channel, said the Simla Agreement had lost its relevance and validity due to India's recent unilateral actions. 'The Simla Agreement is now a dead document. We are back to the 1948 position, when the United Nations declared the Line of Control a ceasefire line following the ceasefire and resolutions,' Asif said. He argued that the bilateral framework agreed upon in 1972 had collapsed, and future disputes would have to be addressed through multilateral or international channels. Referring to the first Indo-Pak war and the resulting UN-mediated ceasefire, the minister asserted that India's steps — particularly the revocation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir in 2019 — had undermined the foundations of bilateral engagement. He also questioned the current status of other key agreements, saying: 'Whether the Indus Waters Treaty is suspended or not, Simla is already over.' In a pointed warning, the defence minister commented on the broader security situation, saying the threat of conflict with India was still there. 'Pakistan does not desire war, but if it is imposed on us, our response will be even stronger than before,' he warned. Read more: Simla Agreement 1972: Key points and exit implications The Simla Agreement, signed in 1972 in the aftermath of the 1971 Indo-Pak war, committed both countries to resolving their disputes through peaceful and bilateral means. The accord converted the ceasefire line in Jammu and Kashmir into the Line of Control (LoC) and obligated both sides to refrain from the threat or use of force, while respecting each other's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Khawaja Asif's remarks came against the backdrop of New Delhi's recent announcement to unilaterally suspend the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT), followed by unprovoked strikes inside Pakistani territory last month—developments that triggered heightened military tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbours. In the wake of India's move, Pakistani authorities reported a sharp decline of 91,000 cusecs in water flows from India into the Chenab River as the Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, has continued to issue hawkish statements, suggesting the use of water as a strategic weapon against Pakistan. Days after announcing the suspension of the treaty, PM Modi declared that water previously flowing to Pakistan would now be retained for domestic use, asserting that Pakistan would no longer receive water from rivers over which India claims rights.

France's Dassault and India's Tata to produce Rafale fuselage in Hyderabad
NEW DELHI: France's Dassault Aviation and India's Tata Advanced Systems have agreed to manufacture the fuselage of the Rafale fighter aircraft in India, the companies said on Thursday, the first time it will be produced outside France. India, the world's biggest arms importer, has been looking to step up domestic production and boost defence exports, which jumped 12% in the fiscal year to end-March, to $2.76 billion. Tata will set up a production facility in the southern city of Hyderabad to manufacture key structural sections of the Rafale as part of the agreement, the companies said in a statement. The first fuselage sections are expected to roll off the assembly line in the 2028 financial year, with the facility expected to deliver up to two complete fuselages per month, they said. After Pakistan downed Indian jets, Indonesia weighs purchase of China's J-10s The statement did not say how much the deal was worth nor whether the finish products would be for domestic use or export, but Tata Advanced Systems said on X that the fuselage would be 'for India and other global markets'. The Indian Air Force currently operates 36 Rafale fighters. India also signed a deal in April with France – its second-largest arms supplier - to buy 26 naval versions of the jets for $7 billion, which are expected to be delivered by 2030. The South Asian nation is looking to modernise its military and boost domestic weapons' production, particularly to strengthen its defences against neighbours Pakistan and China. India used fighter jets in four-days of fierce clashes with Pakistan last month, after a deadly attack by assailants that killed 26 men in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK). Pakistan's defence minister had said three of India's Rafale fighter jets had been shot down during the fighting but did not share any evidence. One US official told Reuters that at least one downed Indian aircraft was a Rafale. Dassault Aviation had declined to comment. India's chief of defence staff told Reuters in an interview last week that India suffered losses in the air, but declined to give details.
