In a significant admission, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif confirmed that India launched preemptive BrahMos missile strikes on key Pakistani airbases during the night of May 9–10, 2025. The strikes, part of India's Operation Sindoor, targeted 11 military installations, including the strategic Nur Khan Airbase in Rawalpindi. Sharif revealed that Pakistan had planned retaliatory action for early May 10, but India's swift offensive disrupted these plans. The operation was a response to Pakistan's drone and missile attacks on Indian civilian areas. Satellite imagery has since confirmed extensive damage to Pakistani military infrastructure, highlighting the precision and impact of India's strikes. (PC: India Today)
