Pakistan has once again intercepted and tracked the latest Kalvari class Indian submarine trying to enter its waters.

In a statement on Thursday, the Director-General Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said that the country's Anti-Submarine Warfare Unit had intercepted the Indian submarine on March 1.

The recent incident is the fourth detection in the last 5 years, the DG ISPR said, adding that this is a reflection of the navy’s competence and resolve to defend the country's maritime frontiers.
