New Delhi: Pakistan's official dossier released on Tuesday revealed that India hit more targets than it acknowledged during press briefings of the Director General of Military Operations (DGMO). The dossier on Pakistan's Operation 'Bunyan un Marsoos', which was launched in response to India's Operation Sidoor revealed that the Indian Forces struck eight more targets than officially disclosed by New Delhi, reported NDTV.
The maps in the dossier show Indian strikes on Jhang, Hyderabad in Sindh, Gujrat in Punjab, Gujranwala, Bhawalnagar, Attock and Peshawar, reported the media house. Notably, India did not name these locations in the DGMO press briefings.
Pakistan's dossier on 'Bunyan un Marsoos' Operation made it clear why Pakistan approached India for a ceasefire on May 10. Notably, the dossier was contradictory to Pakistan's tall claims that it inflicted heavy damage to the Indian air bases. Pakistan's military and political leadership even tried to misled Pakistani citizens by shielding the damage caused to its air bases.. However, Islamabad's official document was a reality check for the neighbouring country.
Earlier, images released by Maxar Technologies showed extensive damage caused to Pakistan's air bases, including Nur Khan and Rahim Yar Khan, during Operation Sindoor.
Last week, High-resolution images, accessed by NDTV, showed a three-metre-wide crater at the air base This crater was reportedly 30 metres from a suspected underground facility at Murid Air Base of the Pakistan Air Force. Damage to the rooftop of a structure next to the unmanned aerial vehicle hangars could also be seen.
On May 7, India launched Operation Sindoor targeting nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK) to avenge the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. In response, Pakistan tried to attack India's civil and military installations using drones and missiles. However, India's robust air defence thwarted the attack. India on May 9-10 launched airstrikes on 11 Pakistan air bases, inflicting heavy damage.
A ceasefire was agreed between the two countries on May 10 after Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) contacted its Indian counterpart.
