In an extraordinary counterattack on the intervening night of May 9 and 10, India struck three Pakistan Air Force (PAF) bases in Murid, Rafiqui Shorkot and the Nur Khan base at Rawalpindi a logistic hub for the PAF and also the headquarters of Pakistan army. The attacks were carried out with clinical accuracy.
Footage indicates that these bases, deep inside Pakistan, were struck with air-to-surface missiles, sending shockwaves throughout Pakistan.
Before the carnage, earlier around 2050 GMT (2.20 AM IST) Pakistan’s army spokesperson confirmed that India has fired six ballistic missiles but levelled a bizarre accusation that all the missiles bar one fell in Amritsar itself, a clear attempt at stirring up communal discord within India while keeping the domestic audience confused and in the dark. Gripped by panic at India’s offensive, the Rawalpindi generals seemed to have lost the plot.
Alongside, there were reports and several unconfirmed video clips of Islamabad city and Islamabad airport taking visible damage, drone attack on Lahore Jalalpur Jattan, Sheikhupura, Narwal and Sialkot.
