Islamabad:
On Thursday, Pakistan conducted a failed missile test where it was observed that it fired from its test range at Sindh. The test was scheduled for 11 a.m. but was postponed after a fault was detected in the Transporter Erector Launcher (TEL).
Pakistan’s Sindh Province notified some unidentified objects with smoke falling from the sky as per the reports surfaced by residents in the Jamshoro area. The crash took place near Thana Bula Khan in Khan, where it was observed that the missile, within moments after the launch, was seen descending from the path and crashed. Though a few local media channels reported the incident, no official statement on the incident has come forward.
The object was a missile fired by Pakistan from its test range in Sindh, according to information gathered from social media. There is a refutation of such claims according to the social media accounts in Pakistan. However, the local administration said that it was a regular mortar tracer round that was fired from the nearby range.
But the point to be noted here is that it is unlikely, however, that a mortar with a maximum range of 5km will have a tracer projectile rise that high. According to the Pakistani News Agency, it has been observed that Conflict News Pakistan reported that Pakistan might have test-fired a missile in response to a previous missile mistakenly fired by India.
Conflict News tweeted that “Jamshoro, Pakistan tested a missile in response to the previous Indian Brahmos Missile. The Pakistani missile failed to reach its target and fell down nearby.
