Pakistan launches revenge missile strikes on ‘terrorist hideouts’ in Iran ‘killing women & children'

At least seven people have been killed after Pakistan pounded Iranian "terrorist hideouts" in a wave of revenge missile strikes

The airstrikes on the Sistan and Baluchestan province on Thursday morning come days after an Iranian drone strike left two children dead

Pakistan's Foreign Ministry described their attack on Iran as a "series of highly coordinated and specifically targeted precision military strikes"

"The action was taken in light of credible intelligence of impending large scale terrorist activities"

"This is a manifestation of Pakistan's unflinching resolve to protect and defend its national security against all threats."

The latest strikes add to exploding tensions in the Middle East as the Israel and Hamas war rages on and Iran-backed Houthi rebels cause chaos in the Red Sea.
