U.S. Response To India's

Days after India said it accidentally fired a missile in Pakistan, the US has said there is no indication that the recent firing of a missile from India was anything other than accidental.

According to the news agency report, State Department spokesperson Ned Price said, "we have no indication as you also heard from our Indian partners that this incident was anything other than an accident."

"We refer you of course, to the Indian Ministry of Defense for any follow-up. They stated on March 9th to explain precisely what had happened. We don't have a comment beyond that," Price said in response to a question.

This comes following Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi stating India's explanation of the "accidental firing" of a missile was a "serious matter" that could not be addressed with a "simplistic explanation" offered by New Delhi and once again pressed for a joint probe.

Pakistan requested a joint investigation and urged the international community to take serious notice of this incident in a nuclear environment and play its due role in upholding and promoting strategic stability in the region.

India's defense ministry said that the govt has taken a serious view of the incident and ordered a 'Court of Enquiry' into it. A day after Pakistan said a high-speed projectile launched from India entered its airspace and fell near Mian Channu in Khanewal district of the Punjab province.
