'Messing around with Israel will prove to be a disaster for Pakistan'? Why did Iran make this claim? Experts say...
New Delhi: The tension between Israel and Iran is at its peak. Israel destroyed Iran's nuclear and military bases, so Iran also started attacking rapidly. There are reports of many people being killed in the Iranian attack in Israel.
Meanwhile, Iran has also dragged Pakistan's name in this war. Iran said that if Israel launches a nuclear attack on Iran, Pakistan will immediately respond and launch a nuclear bomb. Pakistan got scared after this claim of Iran and immediately backed out. Rejecting the Iranian claim, Pakistan said that there has been no talk of nuclear attack from Islamabad. Pakistan has expressed support for Iran and condemned the Israeli attack.
Pakistan is already troubled by the war between Israel and Iran. Petrol and diesel prices have started rising in Pakistan. On the other hand, if we talk about military power, Pakistan is nowhere in front of Israel. Pakistan is also afraid that it may become Israel's next target. The devastation of Gaza is not hidden from anyone. If Israel targets Pakistan, it will be badly destroyed. How powerful is Israel than Pakistan?
Pakistan is nowhere near Israel in terms of military power. A powerful missile will be needed to launch a nuclear attack. In terms of missile capability, Pakistan is a mere speck in front of Israel. Israel has Jericho ballistic missile 3 which can strike up to 6500 kilometers.
It can attack at the speed of sound. It can also carry nuclear weapons. The distance between Israel and Pakistan is 3 thousand kilometers. In such a situation, Israel can destroy Pakistan in a very short span of time.
Pakistan's most powerful missile is Shaheen-3 which has a range is 2700 kilometers. In such a situation, this missile of Pakistan cannot cover the whole of Israel with nuclear weapons. If Pakistan and Israel launch a nuclear attack together, then Israel's missile will reach Pakistan first. Apart from this, Pakistan is not capable of launching a nuclear attack due to opposition from America.

‘Fabricated, irresponsible': Pakistan denies claim it would strike Israel with nukes if Iran attacked
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar on Monday termed as 'fabricated' a video clip circulating online of an Iranian general who said that Islamabad had assured Tehran that Pakistan would nuke Israel if it attacked Iran with nuclear weapons. "There is a video on social media where an Iranian general was quoted as saying: 'If Israel nuke attacks Iran, then Pakistan will attack [Israel] with nuclear weapons',' Dar, also the Deputy Prime Minister, told Parliament. 'This is irresponsible and false news,' he said, adding that the claims had become viral on the internet and that even a UK news outlet picked it up. 'From our side, there has been no such statement. It was fabricated,' Dar said, adding that Pakistan's nuclear policy had not changed since 1998. 'Even at that time, we said that it is Pakistan's stated policy. It is for the purpose of self-defence. It is our deterrence. It was important for parity, peace and security in this region,' he said. 'Israel dare not look at Pakistan. Pakistan has enough power to respond to any malafide [action]. Our armed forces are fully alert,' he said.

Why can't Israel destroy this Iranian nuclear site which is dubbed as 'indestructible fortress'? Site is..., will require US...
(Centrifuge machines in the Natanz uranium enrichment facility in central Iran in 2019. AP) New Delhi: Israel is bent on destroying Iran's nuclear bases with full force. Israeli Air Force is continuously bombing different parts of Iran including Tehran to which Tehran is also replying. There has been devastation in cities like Tel Aviv and Haifa. Many areas have been shaken by Iran's destructive advanced ballistic missiles. Amidst all this, at least 14 nuclear scientists of Iran have been killed in Israeli attacks. But in this entire campaign, one place is still standing firm, that is Fordo Nuclear Fuel Enrichment Plant, which is not only the heart of Iran's nuclear capability but has now become a puzzle that even powerful countries like Israel are unable to solve. Although Israel has bombed here too, but now the whole world is watching whether Israel will be able to break this fortress? Fordo nuclear plant Fordo is not an ordinary nuclear plant, but it is hidden inside a hill 20 miles from the city of Qom in central Iran and about 100 miles from Tehran. It is called the fortress of Iran's nuclear programme, because it is built so deep in the hill that it is not easy to break it. Its structure has made it a 'nuclear fortress'. It is very difficult to break it only by bombing, rather scientific methods and deep strategy will have to be used to break it. Many experts believe that Israel is trying to do the same. This hideout is located in the base of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), and to break it, insanely powerful bunker buster bombs will be needed which can be dropped from American B-2 bombers and this is the reason why the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is repeatedly asking for help from America. Construction of Fordow, a fortress Iran knows that Israel can cross every limit to destroy Fordow. That is why it has built it very cleverly by surrounding it with air defense systems. If Israel really wants to destroy Iran's nuclear capabilities, then it will have to destroy Fordow. Its biggest strength is its design. It is dug deep inside the mountains, most of which is 90 meters below the earth's surface. In 2009, when the intelligence agencies of America, France and Britain revealed its existence, the world was stunned. Uranium enrichment started here in 2011 and today this site generates up to 60% pure uranium. That means Iran is just one step away from making nuclear bomb. What makes Fordo almost indestructible? Israel has bunker busters like GBU-28 and GBU-31 that can penetrate concrete up to a depth of about 6–10 meters. But to destroy Fordo, a bomb that can penetrate up to 61 meters is needed, which only America's GBU-57 MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator) can do. America can destroy Fordo by dropping GBU-57 MOP bombs from its B-2 bomber, but politically it does not want to get involved in this conflict. Apart from this, Fordo is a symbol of Iran's strategic prestige and ideology. It is under the tight security of IRGC, where air defense systems like S-300, underground tunnels, multi-layer shields and electronic jamming systems are present. This is the reason why any attack on Fordo is not possible. A single attack, be it cyber, missile or ground operation, will not work alone. To destroy it, it will have to be attacked simultaneously at many levels, and that too repeatedly.
