Chagai-I refers to a series of nuclear tests conducted by Pakistan on May 28, 1998. These tests were conducted in the Chagai District of the Balochistan province, and they marked Pakistan's first public demonstration of its nuclear weapons capability. The tests were a response to India’s nuclear tests earlier that month, known as Operation Shakti, and were part of the escalating nuclear competition between the two countries.
