00:00:00News coming in right now, government fact-checks fake Udhampur base explosion.
00:00:06Claim government says that the claims of damage to the Udhampur base are absolutely false.
00:00:12Satellite images show no damage to Udhampur runway.
00:00:17Government also says that fake claims are being made to spread panic among the people.
00:00:26Shivani Sharma is joining me for more on this.
00:00:29Shivani, could you give us more details as to what the government has highlighted as far as the Udhampur airbase is concerned?
00:00:38Actually, so the government has clarified that Pakistan is running a fake agenda.
00:00:43The doctor and manipulated images of the Jammu airport are being circulated to falsely imply damage on the site.
00:00:51However, there is no damage at all at the Jammu's Udhampur airbase.
00:00:56In fact, we've been showing the images of Pakistan's airbases that have been inflicted with severe damages.
00:01:03And in a late-night press conference by the DGISPR of Pakistan, they have been showing fake images.
00:01:10These are the doctored images that Pakistan has been using to falsely claim that there are damages on the Udhampur airbase.
00:01:18So, the new pictures that have emerged and there have been sufficient evidence that the government has already put forth that there is no such damage on the Udhampur airbase.
00:01:29These are all doctored images that Pakistan is claiming to be true.
00:01:33So, once again, the fake false narrative from Pakistan is exposed and that to only highest levels.
00:01:39Thank you so much, Shivani, for bringing us all those details.
00:01:42Now, India's Operation Sindur has been successful.
00:01:52The top military leadership on Saturday revealed the key details of the operation.
00:01:56The forces confirmed that over 100 terrorists were neutralized in the strikes.
00:02:01Among those killed were key operatives involved in the IC814 hijacking and the Pulwama terror attack.
00:02:08Military officials further stated that several Pakistani fighter jets were also shot down during the engagement.
00:02:15Not just that multiple airbases, radar stations in Pakistan were also destroyed.
00:02:21They also asserted that the ceasefire deal which was announced after India's strikes on Pakistan's airbases was initiated at the request of Pakistan.
00:02:30The Pakistan army has reported to have lost approximately 35 to 40 personnel in artillery and small arms firing on the line of control between May 7th and May 10th,
00:02:42while India has lost five braves in this operation.
00:02:46The Indian military also emphasized that the operation was launched to punish perpetrators and planners of terror
00:02:53and that the aim was to only target terrorist infrastructure.
00:02:57Indian armed forces have also made it clear that any threat to the nation's sovereignty will be met with decisive force.
00:03:06We have thus far, ladies and gentlemen, exercised, and my colleague Pramod highlighted this,
00:03:15immense restraint and our actions have been focused, measured, and non-escalatory.
00:03:23However, any threat to the sovereignty, territorial integrity, and safety of our citizens will be met with decisive force.
00:03:35I would not like to comment on that because we are still in a combat situation.
00:03:45And if I comment on anything, it will only be advantage-adversary.
00:03:51So we don't want to give him any advantage at this stage.
00:03:54All I can say is that we have achieved our objectives that we selected and all our pilots are back home.
00:04:06Our fight was neither with the Pakistani military nor with anybody else who is there on the other side.
00:04:14Our fight was with the terrorists.
00:04:17We neutralized the terrorists that we selected to be neutralized.
00:04:21And thereafter, we only maintained the air defense posture.
00:04:25However, we were relentlessly pounded by waves after waves, night after night, by his U-caps, by his drones, and by his other unmanned aerial systems.
00:04:39And that left us with no choice but to retaliate.
00:04:43And yet, our retaliation was calibrated, it was graduated, and it was proportionate.
00:04:49In the aftermath of the cowardly attacks on innocent tourists at Pahlgham in Jammu and Kashmir by Pakistani-sponsored terrorists on 22nd April,
00:05:00the Indian Navy's carrier battle group, surface forces, submarines, and aviation assets were immediately deployed at sea
00:05:08with full combat readiness in concert with the joint operation plan of the Indian Defense Forces.
00:05:16You may be aware that we tested and refined tactics and procedures at sea during multiple weapon firings in the Arabian Sea within 96 hours of the terrorist attack.
00:05:29The aim was to revalidate our crew, armament, equipment, and platform readiness to deliver various ordnance on selected targets precisely.
00:05:43Thereafter, our forces remained forward deployed in the Northern Arabian Sea in a decisive and deterrent posture
00:05:52with full readiness and capacity to strike select targets at sea and on land, including Karachi, at time of our choosing.
00:06:05The forward deployment of the Indian Navy compelled Pakistani naval and air units to be in a defensive posture,
00:06:15mostly inside harbors or very close to the coast, which we monitored continuously.
00:06:22The Indian Navy maintained seamless maritime domain awareness throughout the duration
00:06:27and was entirely aware of the location and movement of Pakistani units.
00:06:35In effect, we had and continue to have good battle space transparency using our maritime domain awareness grid.
00:06:45As you are aware, our response has been measured, proportionate, non-escalatory, and responsible from day one.
00:06:58Accordingly, the calibrated approach considered all options, including the ability of the Indian Navy for offensive action from and at sea.
00:07:10As part of this escalation control mechanism, the application of force by the Navy was planned in a synchronized manner in coordination with the Army and Air Force,
00:07:23the highlight being teams from the three services working closely in an integrated manner.
00:07:29Along with the kinetic actions by the Indian Army and Indian Air Force, the overwhelming operational edge of Indian Navy at sea contributed towards Pakistan's urgent request for a ceasefire yesterday.
00:07:47As we speak, Indian Navy remains deployed at sea in a credible deterrent posture to respond decisively to any inimical action by Pakistan or Pakistan-based terrorists.
00:08:03Now, in what's being hailed as a watershed moment in India's military and diplomatic history,
00:08:10India's Operation Sindhoor has delivered a resounding success on three critical fronts, military, political, and psychological.
00:08:20Let me run you through all three points.
00:08:21The military success of Operation Sindhoor is unequivocal.
00:08:25Strikes on the terror hubs of Bahawalpur, Mureedke and Muzaffarabad were not just symbolic, they were devastatingly evective.
00:08:34Prime Minister Narendra Modi's words echoed across the nation.
00:08:37Mitti mein mila denge aur mila diya.
00:08:41Perhaps even more striking is India's strategic use of diplomacy.
00:08:45By invoking the Indus Waters Treaty, by linking the treaty's continuation to an end to cross-border terrorism,
00:08:55India has weaponized a key piece of international diplomacy without breaching it.
00:09:00Government sources have said that it will not allow India's waters to nurture terror.
00:09:06The move is both assertive as well as legal.
00:09:10Operation Sindhoor is also a psychological masterstroke.
00:09:13It isn't just about hitting the enemy targets, it's about hitting where it hurts the most.
00:09:18Deep inside enemy territory, from military installations to key air bases,
00:09:23locations that Pakistan considered absolutely untouchable.
00:09:26The phrase, ghuske maareinge, has gone from political rhetoric to military reality.
00:09:33Surveillance visuals confirm that the obliteration of these long-standing terror camps,
00:09:40eliminating not just infrastructure but also key operatives.
00:09:43For decades now, these locations served as the nerve center of anti-India terror plots, but not anymore.
00:09:55Operation Sindhoor was conceptualized with a clear military aim to punish the perpetrators and planners of terror
00:10:05and to destroy their terror infrastructure.
00:10:09What I do not state here, of course, is the often stated determination of India and its intolerance to terror.
00:10:19It set into motion a very diligent and microscopic scarring of the terror landscape across the borders
00:10:28and the identification of terror camps and training sites.
00:10:33Now, when it came to serving its military purpose, government sources said that Prime Minister Modi set out
00:10:40with a clear objective of raising the terror camps operating from Pakistan to the ground.
00:10:45The May 7th strikes targeted their training and logistical infrastructure,
00:10:49thus achieving Prime Minister's Mitti Me Mila Dhingi objective.
00:10:52An unparalleled success in India's glorious war record.
00:11:02A crushing Indian airstrike at Sargoda, Pakistan Army's nuclear weapons storage site.
00:11:10Another lethal Indian air raid at Chaklala, in Pakistan's Ravalpindi, the seat of Pakistani Army.
00:11:17First time ever in India's military history.
00:11:23A massive win, unthinkable till May 10th.
00:11:26India decisively achieved every strategic objective.
00:11:36Militarily, India demonstrated overwhelming superiority.
00:11:40India struck deep inside Pakistani territory, targeting cities and airfields at will.
00:11:47Pakistani counter-attacks were neutralised with surgical efficiency.
00:11:53Park fantasies of downing a Rafal or disabling an S-400, maintaining air superiority, remain just that.
00:12:01Delusions.
00:12:02In reality, Prime Minister Modi's Mitti Me Mila Dhingi wow is done and delivered.
00:12:07Politically, the script changed like never before.
00:12:17After Uri, India allowed Pakistan the luxury of plausible deniability.
00:12:22Even post-Balakot, Pakistan spun a temporary PR win with the Abhinandan episode.
00:12:30This time, there was no such consolation.
00:12:33Pakistani PM can claim victory, but the world knows whose cities and airfields were bombed.
00:12:39Strategically, India has redefined the rules of engagement.
00:12:50A bankrupt state that once poured billions into nuclear capability post-1971 is now compelled to divert its dwindling reserves towards air defence.
00:13:02The fear that India has struck with ghus ke maaring a narrative will haunt Pakistan for decades to come.
00:13:10With Sandeep Unnithan, Bureau Report, India Today.
00:13:32Is there a military history?
00:13:33Well, extremely strategically significant.
00:13:39This is the first time in independent India's history that such sustained air power operations have been launched in counter-terrorist missions.
00:13:48Operation Sindhu that was launched on the 6th of May was meant to target terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan.
00:13:56That initial operation resulted in the killing of 100 terrorists and hitting of 9 terror training camps, launchpads, headquarters all across Pakistan in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and in Pakistan's Punjab province.
00:14:12The second phase of that operation resulted in damage and destruction of military targets inside Pakistan.
00:14:20That was, of course, in response to what Pakistan did after the first phase of the operation.
00:14:24And finally, the third phase of Operation Sindhu saw the Indian Air Force striking at targets inside Pakistan.
00:14:32Pakistan air bases, military installations, radar sites, ammunition dumps, command and control centres.
00:14:3911 locations were struck inside Pakistan.
00:14:42A very, very big strategic move by India the first time since 1947.
00:14:48Sandeep, also, you know, when we talk about the goals that the operation set out to achieve, could you outline for us the key goals of Operation Sindhuur?
00:14:59Well, India has killed many birds with one stone with Operation Sindhuur.
00:15:06The first is that it's indicated that Pakistan's low-cost option of using terrorism as an instrument of state policy against India is going to have very high costs.
00:15:19And as Pakistan looks at its smashed air bases and radar sites, they would look at this very seriously.
00:15:26The second message is that terrorism, terror infrastructure cannot continue to be hosted in Pakistan with the impunity that it has over the last few years.
00:15:39And finally, the third and the most important message coming out of Operation Sindhuur is that Pakistan has used nuclear weapons enabled terrorism against India.
00:15:51It has used nuclear weapons and its conventional military to shelter terrorism, the terrorist infrastructure.
00:16:00The Pakistan Air Force has launched strikes against India in response to India's strikes on terrorism.
00:16:06India, through Operation Sindhuur, has signaled that nuclear weapons enabled terrorism, sheltering terrorism with conventional weapons is not going to work.
00:16:16India will be undeterred by the use of either nuclear weapons or conventional weapons to protect terrorist infrastructure.
00:16:23It will strike a terrorist wherever they are located inside Pakistan.
00:16:28Sandeep, before I let you go, could you also for the benefit of our viewers tell us how has Operation Sindhuur redefined India's response and war doctrine?
00:16:39Well, in some senses, Operation Sindhuur has redefined India's war doctrine.
00:16:46We have seen for the first time in that briefing on the 11th of May, the Tri-Services briefing, where the representatives, the DJMOs of the Army, the Navy and the Air Force were all present on the same platform.
00:17:01All three services being used as part of Operation Sindhuur, a Tri-Services counter-terrorist operation, where India has signaled its intent to strike at terrorism wherever it is located in Pakistan.
00:17:16And it has indicated that it is not averse to using its military to target Pakistan and Pakistan-sponsored terrorism.
00:17:25This was, in the past, the fact that Pakistan used its military to protect terrorists was not known as clearly as it was in the aftermath of Operation Sindhuur.
00:17:38Now, the Government of India has indicated through this very, very important signal that there is a slight shift in our doctrine.
00:17:47The three services will henceforth be used in such counter-terrorist operations, sending out a very big signal to the Pakistan military that, once again,
00:17:56you are sheltering terrorists and protecting them with conventional and nuclear weapons is not a low-cost option.
00:18:03It does not deter India from using its military to target those terrorists and terrorist infrastructure.
00:18:10Thank you so much, Sandeep, for bringing us, you know, all those details.
00:18:14Now, an Indian strike at Pakistan's Bholari Air Base has killed at least 50.
00:18:19Squadron leader Usman Yousaf was among those killed in the attack on the Bholari Base.
00:18:24Multiple Pakistani fighter jets were destroyed in the air raid.
00:18:28Imagery released by an Indian firm shows the damage at Pakistan's Bholari Air Base.
00:18:34The Indian Air Force strikes appear to have severely damaged the base with debris visible along with structural damage.
00:18:43On the night of 8th and 9th of May, they flew drones and aircrafts into our airspace all across the borders.
00:18:55And made largely unsuccessful attempts to target numerous military infrastructure.
00:19:14Violations on the line of control by Pakistan also commenced yet again and precipitated into fierce RT engagements.
00:19:23Now, India held a big press conference that was addressed by top brass of the military of India.
00:19:33The top officials of the forces explained how India carried out the precision strike at multiple locations.
00:19:40The terrorist training camps in Bahawalpur and Mureetke were the pivotal targets that were hit by India.
00:19:47Air Force executed precision strikes using air-to-surface guided ammunition to ensure effective engagement and minimal collateral damage.
00:19:56Air Marshal AK Bharti showed the detailed missile impact video at the Bahawalpur terror camp.
00:20:03The Indian Armed Forces also underscored that India eliminated high-value targets such as Yusuf Azhar, Abdul Malik Rauf and Mudaseer Ahmed who were involved in the hijack of IC 814 and the Pulwama blast.
00:20:19Air Marshal AK Bharti also elaborated the Indian Armed Forces were confronted with a series of Pakistani drone attacks after Operation Sindur which came in waves over our civilian areas and military installations.
00:20:34The robust S-400 air defence system ensured there was no damage caused to Indian cities.
00:20:41Later, Indian forces carried out a series of precision strikes at different military facilities of Pakistan.
00:20:47And after the strike, this is what has happened.
00:20:54This radar has been taken out completely burnt.
00:20:57Next slide please.
00:21:01The Tunia air defence radar which was taken out on 7th and 8th.
00:21:06This is the radar site.
00:21:09A blown up photograph once again on a tower.
00:21:14Not very clear.
00:21:15Not very clear.
00:21:16But what you see very clearly is the after effect after we have stuck.
00:21:21The radar head has been completely decapitated.
00:21:26Arifwala air defence radar.
00:21:33In this complex, you see how it looked before.
00:21:37Blown up.
00:21:38Blown up.
00:21:39Image.
00:21:40And after, really blown up.
00:21:43Next.
00:21:44Now coming to Sargoda airfield.
00:21:49Remember, this is one of their important airfields wherein they have a lot of assets.
00:21:54F-16s, other assets which they keep getting.
00:21:58Training institutes.
00:22:03And we have stuck this airfield.
00:22:06If you zoom in here, then one impact point here on the runway and second impact point of our weapon, precision weapon on the runway.
00:22:15And if you see, this blown up repairing going on.
00:22:20Same here.
00:22:21Next.
00:22:22Raimiyaar Khan.
00:22:23This is the area we have stuck.
00:22:28A deep strike out here and one complex here.
00:22:39So this is how it looked before.
00:22:41And the same.
00:22:42You see a big crater, another crater here.
00:22:45And this complex after strike neutralized.
00:22:50Next.
00:22:51Chaklala airfield.
00:22:52Noor Khan.
00:22:53Once again, a major airbase.
00:22:54A lot of their logistics assets out here.
00:22:57This was the chosen complex that we needed to be intended to strike and convey a message.
00:23:07Next slide, please.
00:23:09This is how it looked before.
00:23:12And this is how it looked after our strike.
00:23:17Next.
00:23:18Sakkar.
00:23:19We chose the radar site at Sakkar.
00:23:24This is the radar site.
00:23:27And after it was struck, this is the aftermath completely burnt out.
00:23:32Next, please.
00:23:34Aircraft shelter.
00:23:37This is how it looked before the strike.
00:23:40And this is how it looked after the strike.
00:23:43The roof of the buildings completely caved in and burnt.
00:23:47Next.
00:23:48Balari airfield.
00:23:50Aircraft hangar.
00:23:51This is how it looked before.
00:23:52And this is how it looked after the precision strike.
00:23:55Next.
00:23:56Jacobabad.
00:23:57Aircraft hangar.
00:23:58Aircraft hangar.
00:23:59And this is how it looked after.
00:24:08Days after India's deep strikes in Pakistan under the operation.
00:24:09Sindur sources in the Ministry of External Affairs have said that Jaishai Muhammad was hit the hardest.
00:24:20The strike, which was nearly 100 kilometers inside Pakistan, was the most powerful of the operation.
00:24:26Nine terror launch pads were destroyed.
00:24:29But Bahawalpur stood out for both strategic impact and symbolism.
00:24:34Among the dead were 10 members of Jaishai Muhammad chief Masood Azhar's family.
00:24:38Sources have said that the targeting was deliberate and was meant to cripple Jaish leadership.
00:24:44And send a clear message to Pakistan ISI, which has backed the group for decades now.
00:24:50Remember, Masood Azhar was freed during the 1999 Kandahar hijacking.
00:24:56He went on to form the Jaishai Muhammad and was the major reason behind the attacks that took place at the Indian parliament and in Pulwama.
00:25:17Now, an all-out war between India and Pakistan has been narrowly avoided.
00:25:22But now there's a credit war over how peace was actually achieved.
00:25:27India has strongly denied any American involvement in the peace deal.
00:25:31So, let's break down what our sources have shared about how this all went down.
00:25:36The first call between US National Security Advisor Rubio and India's External Affairs Minister S.J. Shankar took place on May the 1st.
00:25:45India made it clear that if provoked, they would respond with force.
00:25:49They also told Washington that they didn't need help, just support at the UN where the US backed India's statement on Pahlkam attack.
00:26:00Then, on the 9th of May, when India launched targeted strikes on key Pakistan air bases,
00:26:05that's when US reached out to Pakistan's Army Chief General Asim Munir before calling Jai Shankar again.
00:26:14A rattled Pakistan sent a message saying that they were willing to stop firing.
00:26:19India retaliated the same stance.
00:26:22India reiterated, beg your pardon, the same stance.
00:26:24If Pakistan doesn't fire, India won't fire either.
00:26:28US Vice President J.D. Vance also got involved, dialing Prime Minister Modi to discuss de-escalation.
00:26:36Modi's response, clear and unwavering.
00:26:39If Pakistan attacks, India will strike back harder and there's no room for outside influence on India's decision.
00:26:45Each night, the pressure mounted on Pakistan.
00:26:49And just like during the Kargil conflict, they turned to the Americans for help once again.
00:26:55And now, it has been revealed that it was indeed Pakistan that reached out to India for ceasefire, eliminating any room of mediation.
00:27:04Now, hours after surrendering to India and proposing a ceasefire deal, Pakistan is now begging for water.
00:27:20It is learned that at the DGMO level talks today,
00:27:24parched Pakistan will raise the suspension of the Indus Water Treaty issue
00:27:30and will likely ask India to revoke the suspension.
00:27:34India, on the other hand, seems firm that it won't share water with its rogue neighbours.
00:27:40Sources have also told India today that India won't share any hydrological information with Pakistan
00:27:46and that India will continue to build infra projects on three northern rivers.
00:27:51This essentially means that Pakistan will continue to pay a huge price for supporting terrorists
00:27:56who carried out the brutal massacre of Hindu tourists in Pahlgaam on the 22nd of April, even after the ceasefire.
00:28:09Now, after being snubbed by India on various fronts and several air bases being completely destroyed,
00:28:15there seems to be an end for trouble for Pakistan.
00:28:21The terror state seems to be facing a double whammy.
00:28:24On one side, it has been battered by India and each...
00:28:28And on the other hand, Baloch Liberation has launched a series of attacks on Pakistan.
00:28:33Just a few days ago, the BLA released a video showing how it targeted an army vehicle with an IED
00:28:42and blew it up, causing major damage.
00:28:44In a recent attack, Baloch fighters took complete control of Hushab area in Ketch.
00:28:50The rebels targeted local police stations, military convoys and infrastructure along major highways,
00:28:58including blockades on key roads.
00:29:00In another attack, Baloch rebels also set fire to police vehicles.
00:29:04These attacks occurred at multiple locations, including Turbat,
00:29:08where grenade attacks were also used to target Pakistani forces in the Baloch area,
00:29:14and in Quetta, where two grenade attacks hit Pakistan army posts and several soldiers of Pakistan army were killed.
00:29:24Now, the night remained largely peaceful across Jammu and Kashmir and other areas along the international border.
00:29:30No incidents have been reported marking the first calm night in recent days.
00:29:36So, peace prevails in the valley overnight.
00:29:40There was no firing, no shelling reported in Jammu and Kashmir.
00:29:54It's been a turbulent last few days for Jammu and Kashmir,
00:29:58but now peace is now making its way back to Jammu and Kashmir.
00:30:04There was no firing, no shelling reported, no drones also, as was the case in the last couple of days.
00:30:11But those are images that we got this morning of peace prevailing in Jammu and Kashmir.
00:30:24The restoration of normalcy process has begun in the bordering areas of Jammu and Kashmir.
00:30:30We are here in Surankot town, a small town in a punch district.
00:30:34It has never been affected by shelling or any such kind of attack by Pakistan.
00:30:39But a couple of days ago, this area also came under attack when the drones were targeting other cities,
00:30:45other town, other residential areas of Pakistan.
00:30:48And since now there is an agreement of ceasefire between two nations,
00:30:52all it is restoring the normalcy.
00:30:54The people, those who left that town, this town had become ghost town,
00:30:58are gradually restoring its peace, routine life.
00:31:01As people started coming back to the town, we see the vehicular movement started,
00:31:05the shops started, the commercial establishment started,
00:31:07public transport has started, people have started gathering,
00:31:10the law and order taking its place, police forces, everyone alert in the city.
00:31:15And that's explained why this normalcy was important, essential for people of this area,
00:31:21being totally adjacent to the town.
00:31:24Many of these places, because of the safety reason,
00:31:26had went uphill towards in their villages, have now started coming back to.
00:31:30And since we see last night, there has not been any ceasefire violations in the bordering areas,
00:31:35in Punsh, all across this belt from Jammu city to Punsh.
00:31:40And that also ensures people that probably this will be beginning of their new normal life.
00:31:46However, there is a sense of apprehension as their people lack faith on Pakistan,
00:31:51whether it will continue to commit on its word and it will not violate the ceasefire agreement.
00:31:56But for now, it's wearing calm, their life is coming back on track in Punsh district.
00:32:01In this small town, Surankot with Sanjay Kumar, I'm Ashutosh Mishra, for India Today.
00:32:09It was a peaceful night in parts of Jammu and Kashmir.
00:32:13There's been a lot of turbulence, lot of turmoil in parts of Jammu and Kashmir.
00:32:18But people could walk freely this morning.
00:32:21There were no blasts that were heard.
00:32:23There was absolute peace that was observed this morning.
00:32:27There was no shelling, no firing that was reported at all.
00:32:31And a sense of normalcy seems to be creeping back in Jammu and Kashmir.
00:32:36The valley is breathing a sigh of relief after seeing a lot of bloodshed over the last couple of weeks.
00:32:43A torrid time there for the locals.
00:32:46But we're happy that they are now able to get back to normal routine with there being the first instance of no ceasefire violation taking place last night.
00:33:02Ashutosh is joining me for more on this.
00:33:04Ashutosh, we just laid out your report of how there seems to be a sense of normalcy that's now coming back.
00:33:10Tell us where you are at the moment.
00:33:12How have things really changed since the time you filed that report?
00:33:16And have you been able to speak with the people?
00:33:19What's the confidence like, especially after this one night of there being no ceasefire violation, no drones that were seen in the sky?
00:33:29What do people on the ground feel?
00:33:35Relief. If the one word that explains the situation is relief.
00:33:38The people are breathing now.
00:33:40Many of these bordering areas, people had gone to their bunkers, were staying in their bunkers.
00:33:44In fact, the Punch town, which is right behind me at a certain distance, had become a ghost town.
00:33:49Because Punch was, remember, one of the worst affected area.
00:33:52And there was a number of maximum casualties of the innocent civilians.
00:33:57Because in Punch, being topographically, Pakistan bunkers having a little advantage,
00:34:02were constantly firing on the residential area.
00:34:04We have seen how the innocent children near their school were killed.
00:34:08So now we see this could be the day when we expect people to starting back.
00:34:12In fact, I was just coming from Surankot and a minute ago, that report that you saw was from Surankot,
00:34:17which is the next town of Punch city in the Punch district.
00:34:22And remember, even in their past 1971-1999, there were barely any such instances when the shelling was literally targeting the Surankot town,
00:34:29which is believed to be one of the most safest area in this bordering district.
00:34:33But here we see, after the attack, that had also become a ghost town.
00:34:36We were staying in the hotel. The hotel itself came under attack.
00:34:39We could see that those sprinters, those sharp nails were targeting certain parts of these structures.
00:34:44Most of these people evacuated, went to the upper hills in their villages in the remote areas,
00:34:49because that was believed to be the safer one.
00:34:51Now we see gradually, the vehicular movement started, commercial activities started, shops are open,
00:34:56and people have started coming back.
00:34:58Now you see on the road, this road is headed towards the Punch city.
00:35:01For the last couple of days, the road was totally deserted when people started fleeing to the safer areas,
00:35:06to the safer areas, to Jammu and other parts of Jammu and Kashmir.
00:35:09This is the beginning of the restoration process.
00:35:12However, the biggest apprehension and concern in the minds of the people are that they cannot trust Pakistan.
00:35:18Looking at the history and particularly the bordering areas, the Punch, remember,
00:35:21has been seeing one of the worst ceasefire violations and very frequent ceasefire violations.
00:35:26Of course, the Indian Army, Indian Armed Forces have been responding very tough to the Pakistani whenever they violate ceasefire.
00:35:32But this kind of escalation, now it is de-escalating.
00:35:35Now we see the situation restoring normalcy.
00:35:38The people still are not able to trust Pakistan.
00:35:41Whether this country will maintain the words that it has promised to maintain the ceasefire for this agreement.
00:35:48And if it yet again becomes hostile for the civilians, that will be a broader concern in the minds of the people.
00:35:53But for now, it's a beginning, it's a new dawn.
00:35:55We see the people coming back to life.
00:35:57The normalcy has gradually started restoring.
00:36:00The moment have started.
00:36:02People have started going back to their town.
00:36:04We are also headed to the Punch city.
00:36:06What I am hearing that Jammu Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah is also likely to visit Punch.
00:36:10We will take stock of the situation.
00:36:12All we can only hope and as long as hope is alive.
00:36:15Remember, Akshet, that is the strength of the human being during every such crisis.
00:36:21Because ultimately caught in the crossfire are the innocent civilians.
00:36:24That we see how they were targeted by Pakistan.
00:36:27But now it's a time to gather back.
00:36:31People have started going back to their houses.
00:36:34We are also headed to Punch.
00:36:35We will bring you more ground reports from Ground Zero in Punch.
00:36:38I appreciate you joining us Ashutosh and sharing all those details with us.
00:36:42All eyes on India-Pakistan military talks which will take place at noon.
00:36:57That's the news coming in right now.
00:36:59India-Pakistan DGMO level talks will take place at noon.
00:37:03Pakistan is likely to beg for Indus water at the military level talks.
00:37:10Shivani Sharma has more details.
00:37:15Shivani, what are sources telling you at the moment as far as India's stance on the Indus Water Treaty is concerned?
00:37:23Harshit, let us tell our viewers that this will be the first DGMO level talks that was planned to be conducted on 12 p.m. today.
00:37:39So this is the first DGMO level talks that was planned after the ceasefire was announced on 10th of May.
00:37:45After the DGMO from Pakistan had requested the Indian Army that there should be a cessation.
00:37:51And Indian Army then reached this understanding that there will be a pause in the firing and the military operations.
00:38:00There will be no crossfire from both the sides.
00:38:03But the Indian Army has also made it very clear, Harshit, that if Pakistan enters into any misadventure or it starts firing, then the retribution will be very strong and hard.
00:38:14So now today when the DGMOs will be talking at around 12 this noon, there will be an assessment of the situation and definitely the Indian side will be raising the issues of breaching of ceasefire on the night of 10th of May, right after the announcement was made.
00:38:29And also a very stern warning will be given to Pakistan on the pause of understanding, pause of this firing that should be maintained and understanding that this is not a stop of Operation Sindhu, but this is an ongoing operation.
00:38:46And as and when Pakistan dares to violate the ceasefire, there will be very strong response from India.
00:38:53So today's talks will also be important in terms of giving a message to Pakistan that look, we are into an understanding on your request that we will not take this escalation ahead.
00:39:08But if you are breaking this ceasefire, then we are ready and the operational high alert maintained everywhere Harshit on the line of control, the international border, the airspace and the army has been given the authority to respond very in a very strong manner as we've already been reporting since yesterday when the army chief had conducted that special review meeting.
00:39:31We saw the pictures of that meeting, after which the orders were passed on to all the commanders, especially on the Western Front, that to be very hard if Pakistan tries to violate ceasefire once again.
00:39:42Harshit.
00:39:43Let's tell our viewers about, you know, Operation Sindhu and how it's been successful.
00:39:51The top military leadership revealed key details of the operation.
00:39:55The forces confirmed that over 100 terrorists were neutralized in the strikes.
00:39:59Among those killed were key operators involved in the IC 814 hijacking and the Pulwama terror attack.
00:40:07Indian forces further stated that several Pakistani fighter jets were shot down during the engagement.
00:40:13Not just that, multiple air bases radar stations in Pakistan were also destroyed.
00:40:17They also asserted that the ceasefire deal which was announced after India's strikes on Pakistan's air bases was initiated at the request of Pakistan.
00:40:26Pakistan.
00:40:27Pakistan Army has reported to have lost approximately 35 to 40 personnel in artillery and small arms firing on the line of control between May 7 and May 10, while India lost five braves in this operation.
00:40:40The Indian military also emphasized that the operation was launched to punish perpetrators and planners of terror and that the aim was to only target terrorist infrastructure.
00:40:52The Indian armed forces have also made it clear that any threat to the nation's sovereignty will be met with decisive force.
00:41:04We have thus far, ladies and gentlemen, exercised, and my colleague Pramod highlighted this, immense restraint and our actions have been focused, measured and non-escalatory.
00:41:19However, any threat to the sovereignty, territorial integrity and safety of our citizens will be met with decisive force.
00:41:31I would not like to comment on that because we are still in a combat situation and if I comment on anything, it will only be advantage-adversary.
00:41:47So, we don't want to give him any advantage at this stage.
00:41:52All I can say is that we have achieved our objectives that we selected and all our pilots are back home.
00:42:02Our fight was neither with the Pakistani military nor with anybody else who is there on the other side.
00:42:09Our fight was with the terrorists.
00:42:12We neutralized the terrorists that we selected to be neutralized and thereafter we only maintained the air defense posture.
00:42:21However, we were relentlessly pounded by waves after waves night after night by his U-caps, by his drones and by his other unmanned aerial systems.
00:42:35And that left us with no choice but to retaliate and yet our retaliation was calibrated, it was graduated and it was proportionate.
00:42:45In the aftermath of the cowardly attacks on innocent tourists at Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir by Pakistani-sponsored terrorists on 22 April,
00:42:56the Indian Navy's carrier battle group, surface forces, submarines and aviation assets were immediately deployed at sea with full combat readiness in concert with the joint operation plan of the Indian Defense Forces.
00:43:11You may be aware that we tested and refined tactics and procedures at sea during multiple weapon firings in the Arabian Sea within 96 hours of the terrorist attack.
00:43:26The aim was to revalidate our crew, armament, equipment and platform readiness to deliver various ordnance on selected targets precisely.
00:43:38Thereafter, our forces remained forward deployed in the Northern Arabian Sea in a decisive and deterrent posture with full readiness and capacity to strike select targets at sea and on land, including Karachi, at time of our choosing.
00:44:00The forward deployment of the Indian Navy compelled Pakistani naval and air units to be in a defensive posture, mostly inside harbors or very close to the coast, which we monitored continuously.
00:44:17The Indian Navy maintained seamless maritime domain awareness throughout the duration and was entirely aware of the location and movement of Pakistani units.
00:44:31In effect, we had and continue to have good battle space transparency using our maritime domain awareness grid.
00:44:41As you are aware, our response has been measured, proportionate, non-escalatory and responsible from day one.
00:44:54Accordingly, the calibrated approach considered all options, including the ability of the Indian Navy for offensive action from and at sea.
00:45:06As part of this escalation control mechanism, the application of force by the Navy was planned in a synchronized manner in coordination with the Army and Air Force,
00:45:19the highlight being teams from the three services working closely in an integrated manner.
00:45:25Along with the kinetic actions by the Indian Army and Indian Air Force, the overwhelming operational edge of Indian Navy at sea contributed towards Pakistan's urgent request for a ceasefire yesterday.
00:45:43As we speak, Indian Navy remains deployed at sea in a credible deterrent posture to respond decisively to any inimical action by Pakistan or Pakistan-based terrorists.
00:45:59Let me go across to my colleague Shivani who is joining me right now.
00:46:04Shivani, speaking of the success of Operation Sindur, how has it been different from some of the other anti-terror operations that India has carried out in the past?
00:46:14Harshit, this has been a historic operation.
00:46:20Remember, we are actually going levels up since 2016's Uri attack.
00:46:27And then we saw Pulwama, how we conducted the Bala Accord strike.
00:46:31And then now in Pahlkam, when the attack happened, we have given a good lesson to Pakistan by striking the nine terror strikes that have been carefully chosen by the Indian armed forces.
00:46:41And this was a synergized operation by the Indian Army, the Navy and the Indian Air Force and more than 100 terrorists have been killed.
00:46:49Not only this operation, but the retaliation that came in from Pakistan was dealt very strongly by the Indian armed forces.
00:46:56We've damaged their air bases.
00:46:58More than 20 sites inside Pakistan have been destroyed, damaged.
00:47:01There have been implications on their air defense systems and a very strong retribution has went ahead.
00:47:08And Indian Army has given out a very strong warning to Pakistan, a stern warning, not only the Indian armed forces, but the political leadership out here.
00:47:16They have warned Pakistan that we are capable of much more, but our actions have been limited and focused and measured because we do not want to harm the civilians.
00:47:26We do not want to escalate the situation.
00:47:30It was Pakistan who was doing so.
00:47:32But now Pakistan has to understand that if it's trying to play with the patience of India's armed forces and tries to touch the boundaries, it will be given a very hard lesson.
00:47:44So Operation Sindhuur has been unprecedented, historic, the face of new India, how we've transformed in past few years, the air defense systems, the robust military equipment and the interoperability of our three armed forces.
00:47:59So all of this was shown, the power of our ballistic missiles, remember the missiles like Brahmos that were used there, multiple fighters that were used there.
00:48:09And the skill of our pilots and the armed forces, not only in the skies, Harshit, on ground at the line of control, the figures were brought out in yesterday's press conference where armed forces said that only on the line of control action there are 35 to 40 losses that have been inflicted onto Pakistan.
00:48:25So it is a major loss and besides this loss of personnel in the line of control, there might be a huge figure of these personnel on those air bases that have been struck hard by India's armed forces.
00:48:39So very heavy damages, a lesson that Pakistan will not forget ever and the association of its army with the terror organization has once again been brought ahead to the world when we saw the funerals of these terrorists were attended by the chief of army staff and their wreaths there.
00:48:58So all in all, this has been an outstanding performance of India's resilience, the armed forces skill, the power, the capability of new India, which is a combination of political, diplomatic and psychological apart from the military operations that we saw.
00:49:14Thank you so much, Shivani, for sharing all those details with us.
00:49:18Now let's take a step further and give you the key revelations of Operation Sindhur, which we got to know courtesy that mega press conference that took place on Sunday evening.
00:49:30Let's go one by one. Revolution number one, 40 Pakistan personnel were dead. Contrary to what is being peddled across the border, Indian forces have confirmed that 40 Pakistan personnel were dead in the strikes, multiple strikes that India carried out.
00:49:44Revolution number two, five Indian soldiers were also killed in the process.
00:49:49Let's move ahead and tell you the other revolution that we got to know from that press conference that all Indian pilots are safe.
00:49:56This is again contrary to claims being made in Pakistan.
00:50:00But we also got to know was that Indian Navy prowls near Karachi as well.
00:50:06The other thing as far as revolution number five goes is that India downed multiple Pakistan jets against something that Pakistan denied for the longest time.
00:50:16But we were told in that press conference that multiple Pakistan jets were also downed.
00:50:23Revolution number six, now there's going to be no Pakistan jet could also intrude the Indian airspace.
00:50:31That is also what we learned from the army yesterday.
00:50:35Revolution number seven, high tech Pakistan jets were down.
00:50:40We here at India today told you how JF-17s and the F-16s that Pakistan were using during the whole retaliation as well,
00:50:51how they were downed by the military forces.
00:50:53Revolution number eight, Pakistan was first to cease fire again.
00:50:57The narrative is something else, but we heard how Pakistan had to dial the United States to ask for cease fire.
00:51:06Revolution number nine, India says that the operation is still on.
00:51:11So there's still things being worked around even though there's cease fire that's been achieved,
00:51:15but the operation is still on in many ways.
00:51:18And lastly, revolution number 10, India is ready if Pakistan dares again.
00:51:24So any misadventure from Pakistan will be dealt very severely and with decisive force.
00:51:31That is what we've been given to understand.
00:51:36Now, in what is being hailed as a watershed moment in India's military and diplomatic history,
00:51:42India's Operation Sindur has delivered a resounding success on three critical fronts, military, political and psychological.
00:51:50Let's run across all three points.
00:51:52The military success of Operation Sindur is unequivocal.
00:51:56Strikes on terror hubs of Bahawalpur, Mureetke and Muzaffarabad were not just symbolic,
00:52:02they were devastatingly effective.
00:52:04Prime Minister Narendra Modi's words echoed across the nation.
00:52:08Mitti mein mila denge aur mitti mein mila diya.
00:52:12That's what he said.
00:52:13Perhaps even more striking is India's strategic use of diplomacy by invoking the Indus Waters Treaty.
00:52:19By linking the treaty's discontinuation to end cross-border terrorism,
00:52:23India has weaponized a key piece of international diplomacy without really preaching it.
00:52:29Government sources have said that it will not allow India's waters to nurture terror across the border.
00:52:35The move is both assertive and legal.
00:52:38Operation Sindur is also a psychological masterstroke.
00:52:41It isn't just about hitting the enemy targets, it's about hitting where it hurts them the most.
00:52:47Deep inside enemy territory, from military installations to key air bases,
00:52:52locations that Pakistan considered untouchable were also breached.
00:52:56The phrase ghuske maareenge has gone from political rhetoric to military reality.
00:53:02Surveillance visuals confirmed the obliteration of these long-standing terror camps,
00:53:08eliminating not just infrastructure but also key operatives.
00:53:12For decades, these locations served as nerve centers of anti-India terror plots, but not anymore.
00:53:20Operation Sindur was conceptualized with a clear military aim to punish the perpetrators and planners of terror
00:53:33and to destroy their terror infrastructure.
00:53:37What I do not state here, of course, is the often stated determination of India and its intolerance to terror.
00:53:47It set into motion a very diligent and microscopic scarring of the terror landscape across the borders
00:53:56and the identification of terror camps and training sites.
00:54:03When it came to serving its military purpose, government sources said that Prime Minister Modi set out
00:54:08with a clear objective of raising the terror camps operating from Pakistan to the ground.
00:54:13The May 7th strikes targeted their training and logistical infrastructure,
00:54:17thus achieving Prime Minister's mid-team mein mela deenge objective.
00:54:22An unparalleled success in India's glorious war record.
00:54:33A crushing Indian airstrike at Sargoda, Pakistan Army's nuclear weapons storage site.
00:54:40Another lethal Indian air raid at Chaklala, in Pakistan's Rawalpindi, the seat of Pakistani Army.
00:54:48First time ever in India's military history.
00:54:53A massive win, unthinkable till May 10th.
00:54:57India decisively achieved every strategic objective.
00:55:06Militarily, India demonstrated overwhelming superiority.
00:55:10India struck deep inside Pakistani territory, targeting cities and airfields at will.
00:55:17Pakistani counter-attacks were neutralized with surgical efficiency.
00:55:23Park fantasies of downing a Rafal or disabling an S-400, maintaining air superiority remain just that, delusions.
00:55:32In reality, Prime Minister Modi's mid-team mein mela deenge vao is done and delivered.
00:55:38Politically, the script changed like never before.
00:55:47After Uri, India allowed Pakistan the luxury of plausible deniability.
00:55:53Even post Balakot, Pakistan spun a temporary PR win with the Abhinandan episode.
00:56:00This time, there was no such consolation.
00:56:03Pakistani PM can claim victory, but the world knows whose cities and airfields were bombed.
00:56:10Strategically, India has redefined the rules of engagement.
00:56:21A bankrupt state that once poured billions into nuclear capability post-1971 is now compelled to divert its dwindling reserves towards air defence.
00:56:33The fear that India has struck with ghus ke maaring a narrative will haunt Pakistan for decades to come.
00:56:40With Sandeep Unnithan, Bureau Report, India Today.
00:56:45Let me take this conversation forward to my colleague Sandeep Unnithan who is joining us right now.
00:56:53Sandeep, how has Operation Sindhu redefined India's response and war doctrine if we can begin with that?
00:57:05Well, extremely strategically significant.
00:57:08This is the first time in independent India's history that such sustained air power operations have been launched in counter-terrorist missions.
00:57:17Operation Sindhu that was launched on the 6th of May was meant to target terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan.
00:57:26That initial operation resulted in the killing of 100 terrorists and hitting of 9 terror training camps, launch pads, headquarters all across Pakistan,
00:57:37in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and in Pakistan's Punjab province.
00:57:41The second phase of that operation resulted in damage and destruction of military targets inside Pakistan.
00:57:48That was, of course, in response to what Pakistan did after the first phase of the operation.
00:57:53And finally, the third phase of Operation Sindhu saw the Indian Air Force striking at targets inside Pakistan.
00:58:01Pakistan air bases, military installations, radar sites, ammunition dumps, command and control centers.
00:58:0811 locations were struck inside Pakistan.
00:58:11A very, very big strategic move by India the first time since 1947.
00:58:18Sandeep, for our viewers joining right now, could you also highlight the goals that India achieved through Operation Sindhu?
00:58:27Well, India has killed many birds with one stone with Operation Sindhu.
00:58:34The first is that it's indicated that Pakistan's low cost option of using terrorism as an instrument of state policy against India is going to have very high cost.
00:58:47And as Pakistan looks at its smashed air bases and radar sites, they would look at this very seriously.
00:58:56The second message is that terrorism, terror infrastructure cannot continue to be hosted in Pakistan with the impunity that it has over the last few years.
00:59:08And finally, the third and most important message coming out of Operation Sindhu is that Pakistan has used nuclear weapons enabled terrorism against India.
00:59:20It has used nuclear weapons and its conventional military to shelter terrorism, the terrorist infrastructure.
00:59:27The Pakistan Air Force has launched strikes against India in response to India's strikes on terrorism.
00:59:34India, through Operation Sindhu has signaled that nuclear weapons enabled terrorism, sheltering terrorism with conventional weapons is not going to work.
00:59:44India will be undeterred by the use of either nuclear weapons or conventional weapons to protect terrorist infrastructure.
00:59:51It will strike a terrorist wherever they are located inside Pakistan.
00:59:58Okay, Sandeep, before I let you go, lastly, how has Operation Sindhu redefined India's response and war doctrine?
01:00:06Well, in some senses, Operation Sindhu has redefined India's war doctrine.
01:00:13We have seen for the first time in that briefing on the 11th of May, the Tri-Services briefing, where the representatives, the DJMOs of the Army, the Navy and the Air Force were all present on the same platform.
01:00:29All three services being used as part of Operation Sindhu, a Tri-Services counter-terrorist operation, where India has signaled its intent to strike at terrorism wherever it is located in Pakistan.
01:00:44And it has indicated that it is not averse to using its military to target Pakistan and Pakistan-sponsored terrorism.
01:00:54This was, in the past, the fact that Pakistan used its military to protect terrorists was not known as clearly as it was in the aftermath of Operation Sindhu.
01:01:07Now, the government of India has indicated through this very, very important signal that there is a slight shift in our doctrine.
01:01:15The three services will henceforth be used in such counter-terrorist operations, sending out a very big signal to the Pakistan military that, once again, you're sheltering terrorists and protecting them with conventional and nuclear weapons is not a low-cost option.
01:01:31It does not deter India from using its military to target those terrorists and terrorist infrastructure.
01:01:37Thanks, Sandeep, for bringing us all those details.
01:01:42News coming in right now.

01:02:20He's only doing his job, but he's been brutally trolled and targeted.
01:02:24Some of his old tweets have been dug out.
01:02:27Information with regards to his daughters has been accessed by some of these trolls and his daughters are also getting trolled and they're facing the brunt of it at the moment as well.
01:02:40Of all of this, but there is support for the diplomat from various quarters and people have taken to social media to stand by him.
01:02:50He was only doing his job and this comes after he went ahead and made the ceasefire announcement.
01:02:57People went into the archives, they went into his old tweets, they dug all of it out, it's been circulated and his daughters have also been targeted.
01:03:08But there's support.
01:03:09At the end of it, there is support for Vikram Misri.
01:03:12He was only doing his job as I just said.
01:03:15Some politicians have also taken to social media and have said that it's abhorrent whatever is being done.
01:03:22It's a top diplomat of the Indian government.
01:03:24He was only doing his job.
01:03:26So from various quarters, he continues to get a lot of support.
01:03:29Geeta is bringing in more details.
01:03:34Geeta, could you tell us where it all started and is there any sort of an investigation that we can look at in this regard?
01:03:42Well, there certainly are some of them that are rather toxic and can invite FIRs.
01:03:49This is not just a man who served the Indian government or India, his country for decades,
01:03:58but a man who's done some very important critical work for India, just being the face of a very important operation against Pakistan,
01:04:06where India has indeed claimed victory, saying that it was Pakistan that had sought a mutual understanding to stop fire, which is a ceasefire.
01:04:18And it's the reason why India took that decision to go ahead because the policy was that India will not hit unless Pakistan hits.
01:04:28But who's taken the biggest hit in all this is Vikram Misri himself.
01:04:33Not just him, it was a shameful act we saw online where his daughter, his family has been trolled.
01:04:43Details of the family put out on social media and being discussed threadbare.
01:04:49This is a point where the government and India as a society should realize whether this kind of hate should be allowed online or not.
01:05:01So while the decision to take action against anybody who tweets is only after the victim,
01:05:09or the person who has suffered at the hands of the trolls, goals and files and FIR,
01:05:15but there can be so-moto-cognisms that authorities can take.
01:05:21And these online trolls will have to or should pay a price for what they've done.
01:05:28Vikram Misri is one of the senior most and somebody who has served the country very well on various counts,
01:05:37whether it is with regards to China or with regards to Pakistan.
01:05:41And now as Foreign Secretary of India, taking the lead on India's foreign policy.
01:05:46So a very shameful act.
01:05:48Again, there could be some of those social media accounts that could have genesis not in India but outside,
01:05:54some in Pakistan as well.
01:05:56One will have to wait and see what the details of those accounts do look like.
01:06:02But there are certainly many who were troubled with the decision in India and started trolling Vikram Misri.
01:06:11Thanks Geeta for sharing all those details with us.
01:06:19Now after being snubbed by India on various fronts and several air bases being completely destroyed,
01:06:25there seems to be no end to trouble for Pakistan.
01:06:28The terror state seems to be facing a double whammy.
01:06:31On one side, it has been battered by India and on the other hand,
01:06:35by the Baloch Liberation Army that has launched a series of attacks on Pakistan.
01:06:40Just a few days ago, the BLA released a video showing how it targeted an army vehicle of Pakistan with an IED and blew it up causing major damage.
01:06:50In a recent attack, Baloch fighters took complete control of Hoshab area of Ketch.
01:06:56The rebels targeted locals as well as local police stations, military convoys and infrastructure along major highways,
01:07:05including blockades on key roads.
01:07:07In another attack, Baloch rebels also set fire to police vehicles.
01:07:11These attacks occurred at multiple locations, including Turbat, where a grenade attack targeted Pakistani forces in Baloch area,
01:07:20and Quetta, where two grenade attacks hit Pakistani army posts and several soldiers of Pakistan army were also killed.
01:07:28Now, India held a big press conference on Sunday highlighting key achievements of Operation Sindur.
01:07:37The top officials of the forces explained how India carried out precision strikes at terror hubs.
01:07:43The terrorist training camps in Bahawalpur and Mureetke were the pivotal targets that were targeted by the Indian forces.
01:07:50The Air Force executed precision strikes using air-to-surface guided ammunition to ensure effective engagement and minimal collateral damage.
01:08:00Air Marshal A.K. Bharti showed the detailed missile impact video at the Bahawalpur terror camp.
01:08:07The Indian armed forces also underscored that India eliminated high-value targets such as Yusuf Asghar, Abdul Malik Rao and Mudaseer Ahmed,
01:08:19who were involved in the hijack of IC 814 and the Pulwama blast.
01:08:25Air Marshal A.K. Bharti also elaborated that the Indian armed forces were confronted with a series of Pakistani drone attacks after Operation Sindur,
01:08:33which came in waves over our civilian areas and military installations.
01:08:38The robust S-400 air defence system came to the rescue and ensured that no damage was caused in the cities.
01:08:45Later, Indian forces carried out a series of precision strikes at multiple military facilities of Pakistan.
01:08:52And after the strike, this is what has happened, this radar has been taken out, completely burnt.
01:09:02Next slide, please.
01:09:04The Tunia air defence radar, which was taken out on 7th and 8th, this is the radar site.

01:09:54Remember, this is one of their important airfields, wherein they have a lot of assets, F-16s, other assets which they keep getting, training institutes.
01:10:08And we have stuck this airfield.
01:10:11If you zoom in here, then one impact point here on the runway and second impact point of our weapon, precision weapon on the runway.
01:10:20And if you see, this blown-up repairing going on.

01:12:42And of course, we can ask osób car staff at the紹介er.
01:12:43have said that the targeting was deliberate and was meant to cripple Jaish leadership and send a
01:12:49clear message to Pakistan's ISI, which has backed the group for decades now. Remember, Masood Azhar
01:12:55was freed during the 1999 Kandahar jacking. He went on to form the Jaish-e-Mohamed and was
01:13:01behind the major attacks, right from the parliament attacks to Pulwama.
01:13:07Operation Sindur, a high intensity strike that tore through terror strongholds deep inside Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Now the discovery of BrahMos missile paths near Pakistan border in Bikaner is fueling speculation about its role in the operation. More details in our report.
01:13:37Precise, supersonic, ideal for hardened targets.
01:13:44India's BrahMos missile was the BrahMastra in its war against terror. The BrahMos was a key weapon of choice during Operation Sindur. Unleashed, it hit Pakistan's terror headquarters with precision.
01:13:58BrahMos's primary target was Bahawalpur, the base of Jaish-e-Mohamed, and it was struck with devastating accuracy.
01:14:08The strike eliminated two high-value targets, Yusuf Azhar, the brother-in-law of Jaish chief Masood Azhar, and wanted by India for his link to the IC-814 plane hijacking.
01:14:20Azhar's eldest brother-in-law and in charge of the Bahawalpur, Jaish headquarters, Hafiz Mohamed Jameel, also eliminated.
01:14:31Hours after India passed kinetic operations against Pakistan, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh inaugurated the BrahMos integration and testing facility in Lucknow.
01:14:43He declared, BrahMos is a message in itself.
01:14:47BrahMos is a message.
01:15:16also hailed the BrahMos, calling it the Brahmastra.
01:15:41Designed and made in India, the BrahMos flies at supersonic speeds.
01:15:46With range over 450 km and is nearly impossible to intercept, delivering near-pin-point precision
01:15:56strikes from air, land, sea or submarine platforms.
01:16:02A BrahMos missile is the most important part of the BrahMos missile in its category.
