Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has convened a meeting of the National Command Authority (NCA), the military body responsible for overseeing the country's nuclear arsenal. This decision follows a series of missile exchanges between Pakistan and India that occurred late Saturday night, according to reports from Reuters.

Witnesses have reported explosions in the Indian cities of Amritsar and Jammu, with at least one military facility reportedly affected. The Pakistani military has stated that its actions against India are a response to previous Indian strikes on Pakistani territory. Earlier reports indicated that several Pakistani military bases had come under attack.

Additionally, explosions have been reported in the Pakistani city of Peshawar, as confirmed by local witnesses. An Indian defense source has acknowledged that the Indian Air Force is conducting operations within Pakistan.

🔎 Fact Check

The post accurately reports that Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif convened a meeting of the National Command Authority in response to tensions with India. However, details about missile exchanges and specific explosions in Indian cities lack confirmation from reliable sources, making those claims potentially misleading.
