Earlier, the Federal Cabinet approved the promotion of the Chief of the Staff of the Army (COAS), General Syed Asim Mnnir in the rank of Marshal in the field.
The cabinet said that on the night of May 6 to 7, India launched an “uninsured and unjustified” assault against Pakistan, targeting civil zones, including women and children. “The attack on the Indian army was a blatant violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Pakistan,” noted the cabinet.
The armed forces, under the direction of General Munnir, responded with exemplary courage and coordination, said the declaration. The Prime Minister praised Coas Asim Munir for demonstrating “exceptional military leadership, bravery and strategic command”.
In recognition of its great defense of the fatherland and leadership which ensured the sovereignty of Pakistan, the cabinet approved the recommendation of Prime Minister Shehbaz to promote General Asim Munir to the rank of marshal in the field.
