Pakistan Navy has claimed that it has successfully detected and blocked an Indian submarine from entering its waters after an attempted incursion on Saturday.

This is reportedly the third such reported incursion by an Indian submersible vessel since 2016.

“The navy detected and blocked the Indian submarine on 16 Oct 21 from entering into Pakistani waters,” Pakistan military said in a statement.

Sharing footage of the purported incident, the Pakistan’s Navy claimed that it was the third such incident in which an Indian submarine was prematurely detected and tracked by the Pakistan Navy’s Long Range Maritime Patrol Aircraft.

“During the prevailing security milieu, a strict monitoring watch has been kept by Navy to safeguard maritime frontiers of Pakistan,” said the Pakistani statement.

It said the submarine had been “prematurely detected and tracked by [Pakistan Navy] long-range maritime patrol aircraft”.

There was no immediate response from the Indian government to the accusation.
