Watch: In a first, Pakistan army admits involvement in 1999 Kargil War

Pakistan army chief General Asim Munir has, for the first time, publicly acknowledged the military’s involvement in the Kargil War during a Defence Day speech. This admission marks a departure from Pakistan’s earlier stance of denying direct military participation and instead attributing it to ‘Kashmiri freedom fighters’. The Kargil War involved high-altitude combat and strategic infiltrations.
