'If Pakistan violates ceasefire tonight…': Indian Armed Forces' stern warning
The Indian Armed Forces have given a stern warning to Pakistan regarding any ceasefire violations, whether today or in the future.
The Indian Armed Forces have given a stern warning to Pakistan regarding any ceasefire violations, whether today or in the future.
This comes a day after India and Pakistan came to an understanding regarding de-escalation of hostilities along the border, which had started after New Delhi's Operation Sindoor on May 7. Islamabad violated the understanding just hours after the announcement on Saturday.
“Something repeated tonight, subsequently or later, in this regard, I must inform all of you that the Chief of Army Staff has earlier today conducted a security review and has granted full authority to our army commanders for counteractions in the kinetic domain in case of any violation by Pakistan,” Lt General Rajiv Ghai, DGMO, said in the press conference on Sunday.
The director general of naval operations (DGNO), Vice Admiral AN Pramod, added that Pakistan knows what the Indian Forces would do.
“This time, if Pakistan dares to take any action, Pakistan knows what we are going to do,” Vice Admiral Pramod said while answering a question.
Military says more than 100 terrorists killed in Operation Sindoor strikes
During the press conference, the Indian military informed that more than 100 terrorists were killed in nine terror targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir during Operation Sindoor.
"Nine terror targets were identified after careful deliberation under Operation Sindoor. More than 100 terrorists killed in nine terror targets in the early May 7 operation," Directors General of Military Operations Lt Gen Rajiv Ghai said on Sunday.
He added that the slain terrorists included high-value targets such as Yusuf Azhar, Abdul Malik Rauf, and Mudasir Ahmed were also killed in the strikes.
Operation Sindoor was launched on May 7 to strike multiple terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied-Kashmir after the deadly attack in Jammu and Kashmir's resort town of Pahalgam last month.
