India also attacked Neelum Jhelum Hydropower project: DG ISPR

ISLAMABAD: “India also targeted Neelum Jhelum Hydropower project,” said military spokesman Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, adding that it damaged a part of the dam’s structure.

“What international norms and war laws and customs allow this — that you target water reserves, dams and hydro power structures of another country?”

Security sources said that India attacked a hydropower plant in Azad Kashmir and damaged it in early morning strikes on Wednesday.

“Indian targeting of water reservoirs has been blatant violation of the international law,” sources said.
