A senior White House official has stated that nuclear-armed Pakistan is advancing its long-range ballistic missile capabilities, which could potentially enable strikes beyond South Asia, including targets in the United States. Deputy National Security Adviser Jon Finer emphasized that this development raises serious concerns about Islamabad's intentions and has classified it as an 'emerging threat' to U.S. national security. This warning comes shortly after the U.S. imposed sanctions on Pakistan's state-owned missile development agency and three associated companies, highlighting ongoing tensions regarding Pakistan's missile program.
