After Canada and America, now Pakistan has also accused India of target killing on its soil.

Pakistan's Foreign Secretary Mohammad Cyrus Sajjad Qazi held a press conference on Thursday and claimed that there is strong evidence of a link between the killing of two Pakistani nationals on our soil and Indian agents.

He referred to the deaths of two Pakistanis in 2023, identified as Shahid Latif and Mohammad Riaz. Latif was the mastermind of the 2016 attack on Pathankot Air Force Station in Punjab.

At the same time, Mohammad Riaz was accused of conspiring to kill five Indian Army soldiers in Kashmir.
