Islamabad, Dec 2: Ruing that Pakistan Air Force jets could not be scrambled due to “communication breakdown” and “lack of clarity”, army chief Gen Ashfaq Parvez Kayani has ordered his troops to respond with “full force” in case of another “act of aggression” by NATO forces.
However, hours after the powerful army chief upped the ante by his strong remarks, a US media report today claimed that Pakistani officials, who were unaware of their soldiers being in the Mohmand Agency, gave the green signal for the cross-border NATO airstrikes.
The comments came in wake of the deadly air strike by NATO on Saturday on two Pakistani border outposts that resulted in the killing of 24 soldiers.
