U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke with Pakistan's Army Chief General Asim Munir on Friday and urged both Pakistan and India to find ways to de-escalate, a U.S. Department Of State spokesperson said, reports The Reuters.
Rubio also offered U.S. assistance in starting constructive talks in order to avoid future conflicts, the spokesperson said.
Meanwhile the Pakistani Military has targeted a number of sites across India. These are all military sites, including one missile station as well as two airfields.
According to military sources, all of these locations have been involved in targeting Pakistani civilians, places of worship, as well as military installations.
Pakistan had been saying that it did not want to go to this level, but it was forced to because after the May 7 attacks, Pakistan immediately responded, saying that it reserved the right … to respond and protect its territorial integrity and sovereignty.
