Pakistan’s armed forces have killed 40 to 50 Indian troops along the de facto border with Indian-administered Kashmir, according to the country’s information ministry.
The ministry confirmed the figures to CNN, after they were first reported by other media outlets earlier Thursday.
“We have blown their (Indian) military installations on the de facto border,” Pakistan’s Information Minister Attaullah Tarar told Sky News.
Islamabad has vowed to retaliate following Delhi’s fierce onslaught on Punjab and Pakistan-administered Kashmir early Wednesday.
Pakistani security sources say they shot down five Indian Air Force jets and dozens more drones — allegations that New Delhi has not commented on.
CNN cannot verify the figures, and has sought comment from the Indian defense ministry.
