FACT CHECK: Did Pakistan destroy Indian Brigade Headquarters?

The misinformation campaign which Pakistan has been waging against India and its security forces ever since the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack appears to gained more viciousness in the wake of 'Operation Sindoor'.

After falsely claiming that Pakistan Air Force targetted Srinagar airbase, pro-Pakistan social media handles claimed that Pakistan destroyed Indian Brigade Headquarters in Jammu and Kashmir.

Refuting the claim, PIB Fact Check clarified that this is yet another misinformation campaign by Pakistan.

PIB made an earnest appeal to people to avoid sharing unverified information and rely only on official sources from the Indian government for accurate information.

Pro-Pakistan handles have been circulating stories claiming senior Indian officers were sacked, exiled, or dismissed due to operational failures. India was quick to debunk these claims, proving that the officers were either retired honorably or were promoted as per official notification.

On Wednesday morning, in retaliation to the Pahalgam terror attack which left 26 tourists dead, Indian armed forces carried out missile strikes on nine terror targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, including the Jaish-e-Mohammad stronghold of Bahawalpur and Lashkar-e-Taiba's base Muridke. The strikes under 'Operation Sindoor' were carried out from Indian soil, without security forces crossing over to the Pakistan side.
