Pak issues nuclear threat to India
Islamabad/Moscow: Pakistan will respond with "full spectrum of force", including nuclear, if it is attacked or its vital water flow disrupted, Pakistan's ambassador to Russia has warned amid tensions between New Delhi and Islamabad after the Pahalgam terror attack. Muhammad Khalid Jamali made the comments during an interview with Russia's state-run TASS news agency on Sunday. Warning that Pakistan was prepared to respond to any aggression, the ambassador said, 'We in Pakistan will use the full spectrum of force, both conventional and nuclear.' Ties between India and Pakistan plummeted following the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir that killed 26 people, mostly tourists. Jamali reiterated Islamabad's position regarding the Indus Water Treaty, a key agreement between India and Pakistan, which New Delhi suspended last week as a part of its diplomatic response to the terror attack. 'Any attempt to usurp the water of the lower riparian, or to stop it, or to divert it would be an act of war against Pakistan and responded to with full force, including nuclear,' he said. The envoy, however, urged de-escalation, noting the potential danger given that both countries possess nuclear weapons. 'As the two countries are two nuclear powers, there is all the more need to de-escalate the tensions,' he said.

'Some incident could happen again': Pak envoy to UK repeats support for terrorism in Kashmir
Pakistan's envoy to the UK issued a provocative warning against India, insisting that an 'unresolved Kashmir issue' could lead to 'further fallout' between the two nations in the aftermath of the Pahalgam attack read more Amid the brewing tensions between India and Pakistan, another Islamabad envoy made provocative remarks against India. On Sunday, Pakistan's High Commissioner to the UK, Mohammad Faisal, warned that an 'unresolved Kashmir issue' could lead to further instances of violence. The remarks from the Pakistani envoy came during an interview with BBC Urdu. While speaking on the India-Pakistan tensions, Faisal claimed that India continues to deny Pakistan's support to deal with the actual demands and aspirations of the people of Kashmir. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'Pakistan firmly stands with the Kashmiri people and their aspirations," he said, warning, 'This issue must be resolved—otherwise, even after Pahalgam, something else can happen." Faisal parroted the Pakistani administration's demands for an 'independent probe' of the Pahalgam terror attack, whose responsibility has been claimed by the Islamabad-based Lashkar terror group. Not the only envoy While Faisal's warning to India took an unparliamentary route, he is not the only Pakistani envoy to issue provocative remarks against India. Last week, Pakistan's Ambassador to Russia, Muhammad Khalid Jamali, openly threatened India, stating that Islamabad will use the 'full spectrum of power', including nuclear weapons if New Delhi attacks the neighbouring country. While speaking to the Russian news outlet RT, Jamali claimed that a leaked document revealed that India would strike 'certain areas of Pakistan,' and insisted that the conflict was 'imminent'. However, no credibility for the Pakistani envoy's proclamation has been established by now. Pakistan is ready to use both "conventional and nuclear" weapons against India in its "imminent" conflict, its ambassador to Russia tells us in exclusive interview. "We are going to respond this time and we are going to respond with the full spectrum of power," says Muhammad… — Margarita Simonyan (@M_Simonyan) May 3, 2025 STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'The frenzied media of India and the irresponsible statements coming out from that side have compelled us. There are some other leaked documents it has decided to strike some areas of Pakistan. So, that makes us feel that this is going to happen and it's imminent,' he said in the RT interview. 'When it comes to India and Pakistan, we don't want to get involved in this debate of numerical strength. We will use the full spectrum of power - both conventional and nuclear,' he furthered. Jamali went on to claim that the armed forces supported by the people of Pakistan would respond with 'a full spectrum of power'. The animosities between India and Pakistan reached new heights after terrorists infiltrated a tourist destination in Pahalgam, Kashmir and killed 26 people. India imposed security measures against Pakistan after it was found that the two Pakistani nationals were involved in the attack. Since then, several Pakistani leaders have indulged in war-mongering by issuing threats to India. Not only this, the country's army has also frequently violated the ceasefire that is in place at the Line of Control (LoC) between the two countries. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

Pak to respond with 'full force' if attacked
Pakistan will respond with the "full spectrum of power" if India attacks it or disrupts vital water flows, the country's ambassador to Russia, Muhammad Khalid Jamali, has said. Speaking to RT, Russia's state television, on Saturday, the ambassador said Pakistani intelligence has evidence that India plans military aggression against Pakistan. "There are some other leaked documents whereby it has been decided to strike certain areas of Pakistan," Jamali said. "So that makes us feel that this is going to happen and it's imminent." The ambassador warned that Pakistan is prepared to respond to any aggression: "We in Pakistan will use the full spectrum of power, both conventional and nuclear." He also reiterated Islamabad's position regarding the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT), a key agreement between India and Pakistan, which New Delhi suspended in the wake of the attack. "Any attempt to usurp the water of the lower riparian, or to stop it, or to divert it would be an act of war against Pakistan and would be responded to with full force of power including full spectrum of power," the envoy said. Jamali, however, urged de-escalation, noting the potential danger given that both countries possess nuclear weapons. "As both the countries are nuclear powers, there is all the more need to deescalate the tensions." India wasted no time in accusing Pakistan of a militant attack that occurred in the afternoon of April 22 in Baisaran Valley, a popular tourist destination around 6km from the town of Pahalgam. The Resistance Front, a little known militant group, reportedly claimed responsibility. New Delhi earlier reduced the staff at the Pakistani High Commission, expelling Pakistani diplomats, and closing its land border – and Islamabad responded with reciprocal measures. The Indian government also suspended visa services for Pakistani nationals. On Saturday, New Delhi announced a set of further measures aimed at downgrading already severed trade ties with Pakistan. Pakistan earlier called for "neutral and credible investigations" into the Kashmir attack. "I think here the role of the international community comes in. And in this regard, we expect that powers like China and Russia can participate in those investigations," the ambassador added.

Pakistan's ambassador in Moscow seeks Russia's help in de-escalating crisis with India
In a bid to de-escalate rising tensions with India following the deadly terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22, Pakistan's envoy in Moscow has turned to Russia for diplomatic intervention. In an upcoming interview with Russia's TASS news agency, Pakistan's ambassador to Moscow, Mohammad Khalid Jamali , said Islamabad hopes Moscow can play a mediating role, invoking Russia's historical involvement during past Indo-Pak conflicts. Citing Tashkent 1966, Jamali noted that Russia shares a privileged strategic partnership with India while maintaining very good relations with Pakistan, positioning it as a credible interlocutor. The appeal comes amid a sharp deterioration in India-Pakistan ties after the Pahalgam terror attack , which killed 26 people, most of them tourists. Meanwhile, Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov spoke with external affairs minister S Jaishankar on Friday, urging both sides to de-escalate in line with established bilateral frameworks. Lavrov referred to the 1972 Simla Accord and the 1999 Lahore Declaration .
