ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif threatened to go to war with “any country whose soil issued” to attack Pakistani nuclear facilities.

Sharif did not mention a specific country in his remarks, which were aimed at its only enemy India.

Recent newspaper reports said that a group of 62 Israelis in Indian held Kashmir were preparing to attack a secret Pakistani nuclear plant at Kahuta, near Islamabad.

Six Israelis were abducted last month by Muslim militants in Kashmir but fought back against their captors. One was killed and three were injured. India said they were tourists, but the militants called them commandos.

Newspapers here have suggested that Israel has been training Indian security forces _ in counterinsurgency techniques.
