Pakistan expels Iran ambassador, recalls envoy from Tehran after Iranian airstrikes

Pakistan expelled the Iranian ambassador on Wednesday and withdrew its envoy from Tehran in response to Iran's missile and drone strikes targeting purported terror bases within Pakistani territory on Tuesday. These actions have the potential to further escalate an already highly tense situation in the West Asia region. Notably, the recent attack marked the most significant Iranian incursion into Pakistani territory. The airstrikes in Panjgur, in Pakistan’s restive border district with Iran in southwestern Baluchistan province, Tehran said, were aimed at the armed group Jaish al-Adl (Army of Justice).
