The Uri attack – that happened on Sunday killing 18 soldiers of the Indian Army – has Indians baying for blood, and Pakistan took stock of it.

Many across the borders are waiting for bated breath for India to launch an attack on the nation that just less than a century ago was a part of it. The Pakistani newspapers showed images of their military preparedness, but ended up using the image of a fleet of South Korean warplanes instead!

The Pakistani International Airlines suspended its operations to Gilgit on Wednesday, to make way for an Air Force drill.

It was reported that the Lahore-Pakistan motorway was shut so as to make way for routine practice of jet-landings.

The Pakistani Defence Minister Khawaja Asif tweeted photos of the Pakistani Air Force drills to show the preparedness of the nation. But he ended up tweeting photos of South Korea and America’s fighter jets instead. The photo was shot in South Korea, as the caption of the photo states.

Let’s hope that the Pakistani Defence Minister can tell his Air Force fleet apart from the American and South Korean ones now.
