Hope that doesn't include ours, to whom they have already granted overflight privileges.

Don't know the size of the Pakistan Air Force, but if they try to shoot down one of our military planes it will rapidly become smaller.

Pakistan closes airspace in fear of another Indian State Sponsored Hijack Drama

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Thursday immediately closed its airspace except one approach. Incoming flights from abroad are being diverted to the route from Karachi to Islamabad via Nawabshah, Rahimyar Khan and Lahore. Any other plane which reaches Pakistan’s airspace has been ordered to shot down.

On Oct 4th midnight Indian Secret Agencies hijacked an Indian domestic flight and the government immediately blamed Pakistan till the whole drama became an embarasement for Indian Govt. India is busy trying to malign Pakistan with its cheap propaganda and could go to any length. In the wake of this Hijack drama by Indian Govt, Pakistan Aviation has closed its airspace.

In other developments, Pakistani intelligence Agencies have already shared enormous amount of human intelligence with American Military for an Air Strike on Afghanistan. Pakistan has already agreed to provide its airspace to USA for any such attack on Afghanistan. This could also be a step in clearing up the skies over Pakistan for any possible attack on Afghanistan by USA.

End.
