Pakistan to conduct missile tests

India says it has received notification from Islamabad that Pakistan intends to conduct a series of missile tests.

They will take place from Saturday until Monday. Indian foreign ministry spokeswoman Nirupama Rao said it did not have a problem with the tests taking place.

"The government of India is not particularly impressed by these missile antics, clearly targeted at the domestic audience in Pakistan," she said.

"We have no problems with their carrying out tests," Indian foreign ministry spokeswoman Nirupama Rao told reporters.
