As tensions between Iran and Israel continue to simmer, Pakistan has denied Iran’s bold claim that it had 'assured' a nuclear strike on Israel in the event of an Israeli nuclear attack on Iran

Israel said on Friday it targeted nuclear facilities, ballistic missile factories and military commanders in a "preemptive strike" to prevent Tehran from building an atomic weapon. Several brokerages had initially expected a cut but revised their forecasts after the Israeli strikes sparked fears of a broader conflict.
