The Pakistani government is afraid of India's occupation of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. This is the reason why the Pakistani government has started converting the airport in Swat Valley near Kashmir into Saidu Sharif military base. The latest satellite images have revealed that the Pakistani army is building a strong shelter to keep fighter jets. It is also engaged in expanding the runway. This will make this airbase very suitable for everything from transport planes to fighter jets.
