India’s government on Friday confirmed that it accidentally fired a missile into Pakistan’s airspace, blaming the incident on a technical problem.
The Indian Defense Ministry stated that “a technical malfunction” during “routine maintenance” was the cause of the “accidental firing” of the missile before it landed in a part of Pakistan on March 9. An investigation was launched into how it occurred.
“While the incident is deeply regrettable, it is also a matter of relief that there has been no loss of life due to the incident,” the Defense Ministry added in its statement.
