In a massive embarrassment for Shehbaz Sharif amid border tensions with India, a Pakistani MP dubbed his own prime minister a “coward" who is afraid to “utter" the name of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

“Not even one statement came against India. Pakistani soldiers standing on the border expect that the government will fight bravely. When your leader is a coward who cannot even utter the name of Modi, what message are you giving to the soldier fighting on the border?" the MP said on the floor of the Pakistani Parliament.

      On Thursday evening, Pakistan escalated tensions by launching drones and missiles into parts of Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, and Rajasthan. India’s air defence systems — the S-400 and Akash — shot down all of them in midair before they could hit their targets, except for one drone that crashed near Jammu Civil Airport.

      In response, India carried out counter-strikes, sending its drones into Islamabad, Lahore, and Sialkot. Pakistan also fired artillery at villages in Jammu and Kashmir, violating the ceasefire. The Indian Army quickly responded to the attacks, officials said.
