The number of personnel martyred during India's cross-border attacks on Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) and Pakistani territory during the recent military confrontation has risen to 13, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Wednesday.
"Indian Armed Forces' blatant and cowardly aggression, launched on the night of May 67, 2025, targeted innocent civilians, including women, children, and the elderly," the ISPR stated, referring to Indian unprovoked aggression.
"While defending the motherland with exemplary courage and unwavering resolve, two more valiant sons of the soil, who had been hospitalised, embraced shahadat today. This brings the total number of martyred personnel of the Pakistan Armed Forces to 13, while 78 have sustained injuries in the line of duty," the military's media wing added.
The ISPR continued, stating, "The martyred heroes are Havaldar Muhammad Naveed Shaheed of the Pakistan Army and Senior Technician Muhammad Ayaz Shaheed of the Pakistan Air Force."
Meanwhile, President Asif Ali Zardari expressed deep sorrow over the martyrdom of two personnel of the armed forces who succumbed to injuries sustained during Indian aggression.
In a statement issued by the President House, he offered heartfelt condolences on their martyrdom.
