NATO planes violate Pak airspace
By Bari Baloch 


QUETTA: NATO fighter planes reportedly violated Pakistan’s airspace for almost 
thirty minutes in the Zhob district on Wednesday.

According to sources, NATO jet planes were seen flying over the bordering area 
of Zhob district, some 300 kilometres away from Quetta, on the Pak-Afghan 
border. The planes whose number could not be ascertained remained in Pakistan’s 
airspace for almost 30 minuets and later returned to Afghanistan.

The movement of warplanes created panic among the residents of these localities 
who thought that the planes would carry out air strikes in the area. 

The sources informed that after violation of Pakistan’s airspace, the security 
in border areas has further been tightened and the authorities concerned have 
been informed about this violation. The official sources on the condition of 
anonymity have confirmed the report.

However, the DG ISPR Gen Athar Abbas, when contacted by The Nation, said that 
he had absolutely no information about this.
