ISLAMABAD – Pakistan caretaker Foreign Minister Jalil Abbas Jilani on Wednesday held a telephonic conversation with his Iranian counterpart following the unprovoked violation of Pakistan’s airspace by Iran on Tuesday night.

Iran’s foreign minister said that “we respect Pakistan’s sovereignty,” and his country’s forces targetted the ‘bases of Iranian terrorist group Jaish ul Adl that has used Pakistani territory several times to attack Iran.”

The Pakistani foreign minister has urged Iran to provide intelligence; if any terrorists plan to attack Iran, and let the Pakistani military will deal with them.
