Hina Khan’s post for de-escalation comes after Pakistan launched a series of aerial attacks to target over a dozen locations, including the Jammu civil airport, Samba, RS Pura, Arnia and military stations in the region on Thursday evening. The attacks came just a day after India carried out precision strikes on terror hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir under Operation Sindoor. However, all incoming threats were successfully intercepted by India’s S-400 air defence system.
Besides Hina, several other celebrities, especially those hailing from Jammu and Kashmir, have also expressed concern. Earlier today, Aly Goni also penned down a long note on social media and hoped for the safety of his loved ones. Stand-up comedian Samay Raina also urged everyone to have faith in the Indian army.
