Pakistan on Thursday said it could order the closure of its airspace for India "at a time of its choosing", but so far no decision has been taken yet. Foreign Office Spokesperson Mohammad Faisal during a media briefing on Thursday said the issue had been discussed at the highest level.

"It is one of the many options that are being considered, we can exercise it at a time of our choosing. No decision has been taken as yet," he was quoted as saying by Dawn. The FO spokesperson's comments come a day after Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi said that no decision has been taken yet to close the airspace to India and any such step would be taken after looking into each and every aspect of the move through consultation.
