"Allegations of Indian Involvement in Targeted Killings in Pakistan Confirmed"

India's defence minister appeared to confirm the government's involvement in extrajudicial killings in Pakistan, targeting terrorists and militants associated with Islamist groups. The alleged shift in policy came after the Pulwama attack in 2019, with Indian intelligence operatives drawing inspiration from agencies like Mossad and incidents such as Jamal Khashoggi's killing. Detailed evidence from investigations into the killings was shown by Pakistani intelligence agencies, alleging Raw's involvement in up to 20 deaths. The operations involved recruitment of individuals from the UAE and radical Islamist networks, and also targeted Sikh activists in western countries. Pakistan's foreign office responded, condemning the Indian-sponsored terrorist acts.
