Indian security forces conducted a multi-pronged counter-terrorism operation in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir, resulting in the reported deaths of over eighty terrorists. The operation, which involved targeted strikes on terrorist infrastructure, occurred early Wednesday morning.
Following the April 22nd Pahalgam attack that killed 26 civilians, a large-scale cross-border operation targeted nine sites linked to the militant groups Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and Hizbul Mujahideen. This is considered one of the most extensive such operations in recent times.
Indian forces launched significant strikes in Bahawalpur and Muridke, areas believed to be key operational bases for the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) respectively. Intelligence suggests that approximately 25-30 militants were killed in each location. One target, the Masjid wa Markaz Taiba in Muridke, is a known LeT facility considered central to the group's ideology and operations.
Several locations associated with banned groups, including launch sites, training camps, and radicalization centers, were targeted in the strikes. While the confirmed death toll is still pending verification from all affected areas, officials estimate it to be between 80 and 90.
Following a military operation, the Indian Army posted a short video on X, stating that justice had been delivered.

Who is Natalie Reynolds and was the OnlyFans star arrested? Truth behind viral video
A video has gone viral on social media, especially TikTok, in the United States, which shows influencer and OnlyFans content creator Natalie Reynolds apparently being arrested in Miami, Florida. The video has garnered millions of views, making many believe that Reynolds has been nabbed by the police. However, the video is most likely staged. Natalie Reynolds in the arrest video (L) and Natalie Reynolds. (Natalie Reynolds) In the video, Reynolds can be seen being handcuffed by a police officer against a police car before she is taken inside the car, allegedly to be transported to the station. Or at least that's the impression the video gives. The rumor that she was arrested for supposedly trying to film an OnlyFans video in public. However, on noticing carefully, one sees many inconsistencies with the video. First up, the police have only 'Police' retained on the uniform, without any mention of the department. There are also no arrest records in Miami showing that the influencer was taken in. Besides, Reynolds is known for pulling off elaborate pranks on social media. As a result, it is likely that the video is also one such prank. Here's the video: Who is Natalie Reynolds? Another rumor that has simultaneously gone viral on social media claims that Natalie Reynolds is the daughter of Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds. However, that rumor is as baseless as it gets, as Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have four daughters, James, Inez, Betty, and Olan. Also read: Who is Tatiana Martinez? TikTok star's violent ICE arrest caught on video- Watch So, who is Natalie Reynolds? Well, Natalie Reynolds is a TikToker and OnlyFans creator who has a significant presence across platforms. On TikTok, she has close to one million followers, while on Instagram, she has over 322,000. She became viral with a video where she was seen crying in front of the TikTok headquarters in Los Angeles. The stunt was motivated by a ban that the Byte Dance-owned platform implemented on her, and she said she was there to plead her case with TikTok. Though she said the ban was the result of rivalry with other creators, people online thought that was not the case.

'The last time he played a T20I....': Suryakumar Yadav's first reaction as Gill gets vice captaincy of the side for Asia Cup 2025
'The last time he played a T20I....': Suryakumar Yadav's first reaction as Gill gets vice captaincy of the side for Asia Cup 2025 New Delhi: Indian T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav has welcomed the return of Shubman Gill. Gill has been made the vice-captain in the 15-member squad announced for the Asia Cup 2025. He has returned to the T20 format after almost a year. Suryakumar said that the last time Gill was the vice-captain on the Sri Lanka tour and from there the new cycle of preparation for the T20 World Cup started. Gill was busy in the Test series Suryakumar said that Gill did not get a chance to play in T20s as he was constantly busy in Test cricket and the Champions Trophy. He said, 'Now Gill is in the team and we are happy that he has returned.' IPL and international record Gill's return is also due to his brilliant IPL 2025 performance. While captaining Gujarat Titans, he led the team to the playoffs and scored 650 runs in 15 innings. His strike rate was 155.87 and his average was 50. Gill has also scored 578 runs in 21 matches in T20Is, which includes one century and three half-centuries. He is among the few Indian batsmen who have scored centuries in all three formats. Selectors' strategy Selection committee chief Ajit Agarkar said that the reason for Gill not playing was the schedule and the busy calendar of other formats. During this time Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma got a chance. Agarkar also made it clear that, keeping in mind the balance of the team, the captain and coach will decide whether Gill will directly enter the playing XI or not. Missing players and future preparations Yashasvi Jaiswal has been kept on standby, while Abhishek Sharma was given priority. Agarkar said that Shreyas Iyer played well in the IPL but could not get a place. At the same time, Rinku Singh was selected as an additional batting option. The selectors clearly said that the players are being selected keeping in mind the T20 World Cup 2026. The India Squad for the Asia Cup 2025 is looking very balanced and potent side. India's schedule India, the defending champions, are placed in Group A along with Pakistan, UAE, and Oman. The team will open the campaign against UAE on September 10, while the high-voltage clash will be against Pakistan on September 14. The last league match will be played against Oman in Abu Dhabi on September 19.
