Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has officially confirmed that India launched missile strikes during Operation Sindoor, targeting Nur Khan Airbase and other key locations. He revealed that Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir informed him at 2:30 AM about the strikes. The operation, launched in retaliation to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, utilized precision weapons like SCALP missiles and HAMMER bombs. India struck nine terror camps, killing 70 militants within 25 minutes. Reports also suggest India destroyed a Pakistani AWACS aircraft at Bholari airbase, exposing significant gaps in Pakistan’s air defense capabilities. (PC: The Tribune)
