00:00We were just hearing earlier on that the Indian Air Force says it's conducted precision strikes with no collateral damage.

00:08But there was a strike that hit a mosque, amongst other things, in the town of Muzaffarabad.

00:1421 civilians killed there, amongst them four children.

00:18I mean, that doesn't sound like a focused or measured response.

00:22Well, these mosques are there in terror camps, as you know.

00:27After all, that's part of the way that the Muslims live.

00:31Wherever there is a congregation of Muslims, whether they're terrorists or not terrorists, the mosques are there.

00:38And I don't know if they're hidden in the mosques or whatever.

00:42But I won't take what Pakistanis say at its face value.

00:47But it's always possible, I don't deny, that collateral damage does take place.

00:52And it's possible that some civilians may have been killed.
