Youm-e-Takbir: Pakistan marks anniversary of nuclear tests

Pakistan marks the 22nd anniversary of its nuclear tests today with great zeal and fervor.

On this day [28th May] in 1998, responding to Indian nuclear tests, Pakistan carried out five successful nuclear tests in Chaghi, Balochistan followed by another nuclear test on 30th May in Kharan.

After these nuclear tests, Pakistan became the seventh nuclear power of the world and first in the Muslim world.
