{ "title": "Pakistan on High Alert: Defence Minister Warns of 'All-Out War' with India", "article": "Pakistan's Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has sounded a warning, stating that Islamabad cannot ignore the possibility of an "all-out war" with India and must remain 'fully alert'. Asif claimed that India cannot be trusted and that Islamabad needs to be prepared for any eventuality. He said Pakistan is on maximum alert for 'any border incursion' and cannot rule out an Indian attack. The defence minister's remarks come amid a backdrop of heightened tensions between the two nations. Pakistan has repeatedly claimed that it is fighting a 'two-front war' with India, referring to its borders with both India and Afghanistan. Islamabad has also accused India of launching proxy attacks through Afghanistan. In a separate development, Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi has warned Pakistan of an 'overwhelming response' if it attempts any mischief. Dwivedi compared the recent 4-day military confrontation between the two nations to a movie trailer, saying that the 'main film' was yet to be released. Asif's comments are the latest in a series of provocative statements made by the defence minister against India. Last week, he claimed that Pakistan was 'fully prepared' for a two-front war against India and Afghanistan. Asif also alleged that Afghanistan was acting as a proxy for India and that the Taliban leadership was being manipulated by New Delhi. Pakistan has accused India of sponsoring terrorist proxies behind recent attacks in Islamabad, a charge that India has categorically rejected. The situation remains tense, with both nations on high alert."
