Surgical Strike 2 : 'It's your turn to get ready for our surprise,' says Pakistan Army to India after IAF destroys Jaish terror camps in Balakot
Surgical Strike 2.: Rattled by IAF strikes, Pak says will respond to India's 'uncalled aggression'. Today is a very important day, says PM Modi at ISKCON.
Twelve days after the Pulwama terror attack, the Indian Air Force (IAF) carried out major strikes at terror camps of Jaish-e-Mohammed in Balakot town of the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. Pakistani security forces and JeM terrorists were caught unaware when 12 Mirage fighter jets stormed in their territory around 3.40am on Tuesday, and dropped around 1,000kg bombs, which killed up to 350 terrorists. After the entire operation was over, Prime Minster Narendra Modi, during his political rally in Rajasthan, said he would not let his country down, and that the country was in the "safe hands". While Pakistan has acknowledged the strikes carried out in the region, it has warned India of an appropriate response at the "time and place of its choosing".
7:15pm: Rattled by India's offensive airstrike in POK, Pakistan resorts to heavy shelling in nearly 55 forward areas along LoC in Jammu and Kashmir, according to Army sources.
7:10pm: "Pakistan strongly protests Indian aggression, violation of its airspace and promises a befitting response. The Acting Foreign Secretary summoned the Indian Acting High Commissioner and strongly condemned the Indian violation of Pakistan's sovereignty and territorial integrity when at approximately 0254 hours today, 8 Indian aircrafts were effectively intercepted by Pakistani Air Force Jets and forced to scuttle back, while randomly releasing their ordinance which landed in an uninhabited remote area," Islamabad said, in a press release.
7:05pm: According to media report, Sushma Swaraj has spoken to the US Secretary of State and briefed about the airstrike
7:00pm: Pakistan Army has said that Indian are claiming that they remained in the Pakistani airspace for 21 minutes and killed 350 terrorists. They claim that the second strike was in Muzaffarabad and the third in Chakothi.
6:55pm: "I am happy that all parties in one voice praised the security forces and supported the Govt's anti-terror operations," said Sushma Swaraj after all party meeting.
Early on Tuesday morning, 12 Indian Air Force Mirage-2000 jets crossed the Line of Control (LoC) and bombed terror camps of Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) in Balakot. The air strike, which has been dubbed 'surgical strikes 2.0', follows two weeks after a terror attack on CRPF soldiers in Pulwama, Jammu and Kashmir.
As news of the attack trickled in early in the morning, both Indian and Pakistani media went into overdrive with varying news reports. Foreign secretary Vijay Gokhale confirmed the air strike and said a large number of JeM terrorists, trainers, and senior commanders were eliminated at the largest terror training camp in Balakot. The camp was led by Maulana Yusuf Azhar alias Ustad Ghauri, brother-in-law of JeM Chief Masood Azhar. The government said the camp was located on a hilltop, deep in a forest, and far away from any civilian presence.
How Pak Media is Reporting the Attack
While Indian media praised the precision and success of the attack, many media outlets in Pakistan confirmed the attack but said the Indian jets “fled” after Pakistani forces retaliated. A report in Pakistani daily Dawn ran the headline, "Indian aircraft violate LoC, scramble back after PAF's timely response: ISPR". The headline refers to a tweet by Director-General Inter-Services Public Relations Major-General Asif Ghafoor who posted pictures of an alleged payload from IAF jets, with the caption, "Payload of hastily escaping Indian aircraft fell in open."
Pakistani media is treating the attack as an LoC violation and has accused India of warmongering. Yet another article in Dawn is currently running with the headline, "Pakistan will respond to Indian aggression at time, place of its choosing: NSC on LoC violation". The report is based on the statement by Pakistan's National Security Committee which met in a special meeting convened by PM Imran Khan in the wake of the attacks.
