Hey everyone, here's your quick update on a major development in the region! Pakistan has kicked off a military campaign code-named Operation Bunyanun Marsoos (which means "concrete structure") in response to what it calls continuous provocations from India. Multiple targets across India are being hit, with reports that the BrahMos missile storage facility in Beas was destroyed in the initial strike. ⚔️
In a dramatic turn, a Pakistani army spokesperson revealed that India launched air-to-surface missiles at three Pakistani air bases. Fortunately, all strategic assets of the Pakistan Air Force remained secure amid the attack.
Meanwhile, India is reported to have carried out missile and drone strikes targeting key military installations in Pakistan’s Punjab province. These include Nur Khan Air Base near Islamabad, Murid Air Base in Chakwal, and Shorkot Air Base in Jhang. There are also indications of similar strikes in Afghanistan, adding a further twist to the unfolding situation.
Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, director general of the Inter-Services Public Relations, condemned the actions, stating, "These unprovoked and reckless acts demonstrate India's madness and treacherous nature." He warned, "Now you just wait for our response," highlighting the heightened tensions after the deadly attack on tourists in Pahalgam in Indian-controlled Kashmir on April 22.
In our fast-paced digital world, every headline stirs conversation. Stay informed, keep the dialogue going, and let's hope for a peaceful resolution ahead! 🌟
