Pakistan-US-Chopper
Pakistan has condemned landing of two US helicopters in India-administered Kashmir on Tuesday.
A private television channel here on Wednesday reported that Information and Broadcasting Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed, who is also the government's central spokesman, condemned the incident.
Media reports said that two choppers, engaged in relief operations in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, entered the region by mistake.
An earthquake measuring 7.6 on the Richter scale hit Pakistan and Kashmir under its administration on October 8, killing more than 74,000 people.
The choppers were allowed to take off, after being quizzed and warned.
Meanwhile, a few days ago, a United Nations helicopter had also crossed into Indian Kashmir.
