“Pakistan Takes Swift Action: Recalls Ambassador and Blocks Tehran’s Envoy Following Tragic Air Strike”
In the wake of a tragic missile onslaught claiming the lives of two innocent children, Pakistan has opted for a diplomatic recalibration by summoning back its ambassador and expelling the Iranian envoy. Regional media sources suggest that this harrowing incident unfolded in the vicinity of Panjgur, nestled in the southwestern Balochistan region, causing injuries to three additional individuals. Tehran, in response, has asserted the obliteration of two bases linked to Jaish al-Adl militants in the Balochistan province on Tuesday, refraining from any explicit acknowledgment of responsibility. This development transpires against the backdrop of an escalating crisis in the Middle East, primarily propelled by the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
In an official statement, spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch condemned Iran’s audacious transgression of Pakistan’s sovereignty last night, deeming it a flagrant violation of international law and the foundational tenets outlined in the Charter of the United Nations.
“Four missiles were fired in the village of Koh-i-Sabaz which is around 50 km inside Pakistan soil…A mosque and three houses were damaged in the attack,” another official said, adding that two young girls had been killed and three other family members injured,” officials in Panjgur told Reuters.

In a perplexing turn of events, initially reported by Iranian state media and subsequently retracted without clarification, assertions were made that the paramilitary Revolutionary Guard had directed their focus towards the bases. Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian, addressing the World Economic Forum in Davos, acknowledged Tehran’s involvement in the assaults within Pakistan. (With contributions from various agencies)
