Operation Sindoor: India strikes Pak military posts, terror launch pads again, destroys armed drones | Video

Visuals have emerged showing Indian troops destroying terror launch pads in Pakistan again, days after India launched 'Operation Sindoor' and struck terror bases in the neighbouring country to avenge the Pahalgam terror attack.

 

Fresh visuals show India striking the bases from where drones targeting India were launched on Friday night. The development comes after India thwarted Pakistani drone strikes targeting 26 locations across the Line of Control and International Border.

 

Defence sources told ANI, "Pakistani posts and terrorist launch pads from where tube-launched drones were also being launched, have been destroyed by the Indian Army positioned near Jammu." 

 

Meanwhile, Indian Army on Saturday said it thwarted Pakistani drone strikes targeting areas in Punjab on Saturday morning. Indian Army said, "Pakistan’s blatant escalation with drone strikes and other munitions continues along our western borders. In one such incident, today at approximately 5 AM, Multiple enemy armed drones were spotted flying over Khasa Cantt, Amritsar. The hostile drones were instantly engaged and destroyed by our air defence units."

 

Army said Pakistan's blatant attempt to endanger civilians is unacceptable and it will "thwart enemy designs". 

 

The escalation in tensions between India and Pakistan come after Pakistan launched Bunyan-un-Marsoos on Saturday in retaliation for Indian strikes. Pakistan has closed its airspace till 12 noon. Pakistan military spokesperson Lt Gen Ahmad Sharif Chaudhry confirmed India launched strikes targeting its air bases in Nur Khan (Chaklala, Rawalpindi), Murid (Chakwal) and Rafiqui (Shorkot in Jhang district), PTI reported. However, Chaudhry claimed its military assets were safe.

 

 

On Friday night for the second day in a row, India thwarted Pakistani drone strikes targeting 26 locations across the Line of Control and International Border. The defence ministry said the targeted locations include Baramulla, Srinagar, Avantipora, Nagrota, Jammu, Ferozpur, Pathankot, Fazilka, Lalgarh Jatta, Jaisalmer, Barmer, Bhuj, Kuarbet and Lakhi Nala. "The situation is under close and constant watch & prompt action is being taken wherever necessary," it said.
