The Pakistani army struck 26 Indian military facilities and dozens of Pakistani drones hovered over the major Indian cities, including Capital New Delhi, during offensive operations on Saturday, Lieutenant-General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, director general of interiming public relations (ISPR) announced on Sunday.
The chief military spokesman said the Pakistani armed forces had held the promise they had made to the nation to avenge the martyrdom of innocent civilians, including children, in strikes in the night between May 6 and 7.
Chaudhry spoke to the media at a joint press conference with Air Vice-Maréchal Aurangzeb Ahmed and the deputy chief of naval staff (operations) vice-admiral Raja Rab Nawaz, to share the details of the operation of Bunyanan Marsoos, carried out against India on Saturday.
Chaudhry said that 26 military targets as well as installations that have been used to target Pakistani citizens and companies that were responsible for fomenting terrorism in Pakistan were engaged in Indian Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) and in continental India.
The targets included the basics of Air Force and Indian air in Suratgarh, Sirsa, Adampur, Bhuj, Nalia, Bhatinda, Barnala, Harwara, Avantipura, Srinagar, Jammu, Mamoon, Ambala, Udhampur and Pathankot-all of which have suffered major damage, he added.
“The Barhmos facilities, which pulled missiles in Pakistan and killed innocent civilians, were destroyed. [PAF]”Said Lieutenant-General Chaudhry in the media.
“Military logistics and support sites that have contributed to maintaining this illegal operation against innocent Pakistani civilians such as the land supply deposit in Uri and Radar Poonch station have also been targeted,” he added.
In addition, the chief military spokesman declared the seat of the military command, which helped to plan the functioning of the death of innocent citizens, including the 10th and 80th brigade at KG Top and Nowshera was also destroyed.
The director general of the ISPR also said that the facilities that hosted and formed proxy elements to perpetrate terrorist attacks in Pakistan and kill innocent civilians here were specifically identified and destroyed.
On the other side of the control line (LOC), military elements, in particular the head office, the logistics bases, the artillery positions and the posts which had caused civilian victims to Azad Jammu and the cashmere (AJK) through unofficial artillery and light weapons have been tirelessly targeted and strongly damaged until they lift the white flags and asked for the restraint.
“Pakistan has brought justice and the remuneration for the reprehensible aggression of the Indian soldiers and the brutal killings of our citizens. Pakistan’s response was a demonstration of integrated co-joy manuals of the co-service activated by awareness of the situation in real time and the war capacities centered on the network,” he said.
“This synergy through the fields of air, land, sea and cyber allowed precision commitments, overwhelming lethality and a quick tempo. All platforms operated in synergy, offering coordinated effects with carefully selected decisive points,” he added.
He said that the Missiles of the long-range Fateh series guided by F-1 and F-2 precision of the Pakistani army, the precision ammunition of the PAF, the killing ammunition with long-range flats and the precision of precision were used.
The armed forces of Pakistan, he said, also carried out a complete and effective cyber-offensive to temporarily paralyze and degrade the infrastructure and critical services that were used by Indian forces to support their operations, he continued.
“Let me tell you that the Pakistan armed forces have an adequate suite of very sophisticated military niche technologies. Only some were used with restraint in this conflict. The military response of Pakistan was precise, proportioned and always remarkably retained.”
The CEO ISPR revealed that Pakistan had also suffered an abnormal and immediate peak in terrorism sponsored by India through Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Balutchistan, while “we were occupied in operations” on the eastern front.
This increase in terrorism, he said, justified that India was directly involved in fomental terrorism in Pakistan and that its attorney was fully operationalized during this period to distract the attention of the security forces. However, the forces have carried out the most effective terrorism control operations in the Western region without any break, “he said.
The military spokesman said that Pakistan has never targeted civilians because “our religion, our culture and our professionalism do not allow us” to do so. “We will never target civilians. Even from Indian statements, have you found that Pakistan attacked anything other than military targets?”. “”
He said that Alhamd-O-Lillah, the armed forces of Pakistan “held the promise made to our people”, adding: “I begin by thanking Allah all-powerful for his infinite blessings, his mercy, his help and his divine support because he ordered believers to retaliate each time they are linked. “”
He expressed sympathies with the Shuhada families and prayed for the rapid recovery of injured compatriots. He hung a sincere gratitude to each officer, soldier, aviator and sailor of the armed forces who made this success possible on the battlefield thanks to their courage and their professionalism.
He also expressed a deep appreciation to the courageous Pakistani nation, including young people from Pakistan, who became front-line soldiers as a information and cyber warriers of the country. “Deep thanks to you also, the dynamic media of Pakistan who also stood as Bunyanun Marsoos,” he said.
“We are extremely grateful to the political leadership of all political parties without any distinction for their unified resolution of support for their armed forces”, adding that the armed forces were specifically grateful to the inspiring management of the Prime Minister of Pakistan and its ministers.
During the war, Chaudhry said that the Pakistan air defense system worked with precision and destroyed all the hostile drones that entered its airspace. He shared that around 84 drones had been killed. “We had promised that everything that sent us would not come back-and we held this promise,” he said.
Answering a question about the ceasefire, Chaudhry said Pakistan had never asked for it. “Put it to recording” that Pakistan “has never asked for a cease-fire,” he said. “On the night of May 6 and 7, after these vile and cowardly attacks were made, the Indians asked and Pakistan gave a very clear answer that we will only communicate after giving the answer that this act deserves.”
May 10, he said, after the “response and compensation [ ] And on the request and intervention of international interlocutors, we responded to the demand already made of the Indians, “he said.” If you look at the public statements of the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces of India, they clearly called on de-escalation, “he noted.
Answering another question, he said: “In a conflict between two rival nuclear powers … Such a conflict is in fact absurdity and it is inconceivable and pure stupidity. In the case of India and Pakistan, such a conflict can lead to a danger of more than 1.6 billion people,” he said.
“In reality, there is no space for the war between India and Pakistan, and if someone wants to carve out this space for war, he is in fact preparing space for mutual annihilation. This is why you have seen how, in this conflict, Pakistan acted in a very mature way,” said GG Ispr.
“Thanks to the conventional forces, we have maintained control of the climbing, through the conventional forces, we gave them a response from two notches while ensuring that the Pakistani forces used in the operations to combat terrorism … No traction is also exercised on them.”
DG ISPR said that Pakistan does not have an Indian pilot in detention, blaming him for “chatting of social media”. He said: “All this is one of the false news and propaganda that have been generated from several sources.”
On this occasion, the vice-marshal Air Ahmed said that the PAF had responded with boldly and confident. “Our action was based on our own timing and our choice. The leadership was clear and gave us solid instructions,” he said.
He added that the PAF has targeted the greatest number of Indian Air Force (IAF) aerodromes in a single mission since 1971. “We have avoided civil damage and struck with great precision,” he noted. “Pakistan’s rapid and effective response prevented India from creating a new normal through aggressive actions.”
He said Pakistan has remained determined to protect its airspace and promote peace by force. He credited the chief of the air staff (case), Zaheer Ahmad Babar, as the main spirit behind the operation. “He (case) gave us three tasks: restore deterrence, neutralize threats and control the air.”
Aurangzeb revealed that in the first phase of the answer, Pakistan targeted the Indian Rafale planes, anchoring the fleet near the western border. “This limited their options and their freedom of action,” he said, adding that India had then launched drone attacks against Pakistani civil zones. However, Pakistan’s radar and scrambling systems have detected and deactivated all drones, making them useless.
Vice-admiral Raja Rab Nawaz said there were a lot of discussions on the Indian aircraft carrier, Ins Vikrant, coming to Karachi. “We followed him carefully from the start. On May 6 to 7, he was near Bombay, and on May 9, he came to less than 400 naval miles from our coast, then we returned.”
He explained that if the carrier had come closer, the Pakistani navy was ready to answer. “Our maritime air arm was fully prepared and we stayed in touch with the Air Force everywhere,” he said.
“As a military officer, I do not take the enemy lightly, but let’s be realistic. The vikrant only transports 8-12 MIG-29, enough for his own defense-not much more,” he said, adding that the Indian Navy included the heavy price they would pay if they were trying to act from the sea-and that was why they had stayed back.
Rab Nawaz said that the Pakistani navy had maintained constant vigilance within its maritime borders and had been ready to respond effectively, having the ability to dissuade any enemy intrusion into its territories. He added that the navy had assured that the ports had remained operational during periods of tension with India.
