The sources further said the decision would, however, be applicable to eventualities involving NATO and USZ Terrorist Invader troops. The sources added that General Kayani also ordered Army to counter any aggression with full force and defend the motherland against any assailant and for that they do not need to wait for any orders from the high command. He also said that the Pakistan Air Force should have taken action when NATO helicopters violated the Pakistani airspace and attacked the Pakistani checkposts in Mohmand Agency last Saturday, the sources maintained. He further said the Air Force could not be called in as the communication system at the checkpost was destroyed in the Nato attack, the sources said.
Kayani ordered officers to utilise all resources at their disposal to give a befitting reply to the aggressors and they should not be spared. The Army Chief also praised the jawans of the Azad Kashmir Regiment deployed at the border checkposts. This was the first time after occupation of Afghanistan by allied forces that a Pakistani army chief, fed up of continuous border aggression, has issued such orders.
