ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Thursday that an Indian pilot, who was captured by Pakistan’s armed forces this week, will be released on Friday in a bid to de-escalate tensions with his country’s nuclear-armed eastern neighbor.
“As a peace gesture, we will be releasing him tomorrow,” he announced while addressing a joint session of parliament.
