Pakistan's Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal has hoped that India will not de-escalate to move to dialogue and diplomacy, Pakistani media outlet Geo News reported.
"We would hate to see that (nuclear) threshold being breached," he said, as reported by Reuters.
Pakistan has launched a major military campaign code-named Operation Bunyanun Marsoos in response to continued Indian provocations, official sources said early Saturday, according to Xinhua.
The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the media wing of the Pakistan army, said in a statement that the operation "Bunyanun Marsoos," meaning concrete structure, has been initiated and that multiple targets are being engaged all across India, Xinhua reported.
According to a previous CNN report, India is currently responding to Pakistani attacks, an Indian official with knowledge of the matter told CNN's Chief Global Affairs Correspondent Matthew Chance.
