ISLAMABAD: Pakistan launched the military operation Bunyan Marsoos(Iron Wall), against India and targeted the several strategic installations.
Security sources said seven sites in India were targeted including the key Pathankot air base, Udhampur air base, Gujarat air base. Rajhastan air base and Brahmos storage site.
The operation was launched in retaliation to Indian missile strikes that hit several locations inside the country.
Pakistan launched precision missile strikes against India under Operation Bunyaan al Marsoos, symbolizing unity and steadfast national defense.
The operation’s name—meaning “a structure firmly joined together”—draws inspiration from Surah Al-Saff (61-4) which praises those who fight in Allah’s cause as a solid, fortified structure.
Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Syed Asim Munir offered Fajr prayers and recited Surah Al-Saff before the operation commenced, invoking divine guidance.
“Indeed, Allah loves those who fight in His cause in a row as though they are a structure joined firmly. (Surah Al-Saff, verse 4)
The action reflects Pakistan’s resolve and collective strength in the face of external aggression.
Earlier, India has fired missiles at three air bases inside Pakistan, however all assets of Pakistan Air Force (PAF) remained safe, military spokesman said.
Director General Inter Service Public Relations (ISPR) Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry at a press conference confirmed that India fired the air-to-ground missiles at the Nur Khan base (Rawalpindi), Murid base (Chakwal) and Shorkot air base.
“By the grace of Allah Almight, all PAF assets are safe,” he said.
He warned India of a befitting response, saying “Now just wait for our response”.
The DG ISPR said India also fired missiles and drones in Afghanistan.
He said India with its arrogance was pushing the region into destabilization. “We will not get impressed by this, and will fight with full force,” he added.
