She further said that these could include Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs), and also named other countries including Russia, China, North Korea and Iran.“…The intelligence community assesses that Russia, China, North Korea, Iran and Pakistan have been researching and developing an array of novel, advanced or traditional missile delivery systems with nuclear and conventional payloads that put our homeland at risk,” Gabbard said.She further said, “Pakistan's long-range ballistic missile development potentially could include ICBMs with a range capable of striking the homeland.”MEA ‘strongly’ condemns Pak strikes on AfghanistanMeanwhile, MEA spokesperson Jaiswal also reiterated India's stance on Pakistan's strikes on Afghanistan, which allegedly hit an addiction treatment hospital and led to the deaths of over 400 people.“We have seen strikes from Pakistan into Afghanistan.
