Pakistan has launched attacks on “multiple targets” across India, according to the media wing of Pakistan’s military.
In a statement, Pakistan said it has unleashed Operation Bunyan ul Marsoos (Solid Wall of Steel) in response to what it calls “continuous provocation” by India.
“Multiple targets in this operation are being engaged all across India,” the statement added.
Pakistan’s military said it used medium-range Fateh missiles to strike a missile storage facility and airbases in Pathankot and Udhampur.
The AP news agency said loud explosions have been heard in Indian-controlled Kashmir, in the disputed region’s two big cities of Srinagar and Jammu, and the garrison town of Udhampur.
Meanwhile, an Indian military source told Reuters that India has launched air operations in Pakistan, although no further details were given.
Pakistan’s military posted footage on X showing missiles being fired from what appeared to be a mobile launcher.
Indian civilians overwhelmingly support invading Pakistan though, India is a democracy, and the civilians vote for their leaders
You’ve taken a billon Indians opinion have you. Yes there are dipshits who will scream war, but there’s also millions of people who don’t want any of this hostility to escalate
Of course not, less than a billion Indians are eligible to vote at all and many have bigger problems in their life than politics like not having any food to eat. Among those who are eligible to vote and did vote, a democratic majority voted for parties and candidates who support discrimination of Muslims in India and general hostility towards Pakistan. If you have any data showing that the sentiments changed since the general election last year, I’d be happy to see it
