According to a recent revelation, A Kabul-bound Indian passenger plane was intercepted by two Pak F-16 fighter jets last month. Flight SG-21 of Spicejet flew from Delhi and was flying over Pakistan when Pak's ATC misunderstood it for an Indian Airforce or Indian army jet and prompted the Pak Airforce. The incident happened on September 23 when the Pak pilots asked the Spicejet pilot to lower the plane's altitude and report to them.
