Operation Sindoor: Forces Release Before-And-After Video Of Pakistan's Terror Hideouts
Last Updated:
The video displayed satellite visuals of the strike carried out under Operation Sindoor on 7 May, as part of India's response to the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam
A video showing the missile impact on the Muridke terror camp in Pakistan was played during a press briefing by senior officials of the Indian Armed Forces on Sunday.
The video displayed satellite visuals of the strike carried out under Operation Sindoor on 7 May, as part of India's response to the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam.
Air Marshal AK Bharti presented the footage, explaining how the Indian Air Force (IAF) conducted a missile strike on the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) headquarters in Muridke, located around 18 to 25 kilometres from the International Boundary.
'Through these precise and targeted strikes, we successfully hit the terror infrastructure at Muridke," said Air Marshal Bharti, while pointing to the video showing the exact missile impact point.
Army Colonel Sofiya Qureshi, speaking earlier on 8 May, had confirmed that Markaz Taiba has long served as the LeT headquarters under Hafiz Saeed.
Terrorists involved in the 2008 Mumbai attacks, including Ajmal Kasab and David Headley, were trained at this site, Col Qureshi stated. Kasab, the only attacker captured alive, was later executed in India in 2012 after a full trial.
Other terror camps targeted included the Markaz Subhan Allah of Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) in Bahawalpur, Hizbul Mujahideen's Mehmoona Joya Facility in Sialkot, LeT's Markaz Ahle Hadith in Barnala, and its Shawai Nalla camp in Muzaffarabad.
He noted that multiple intelligence agencies had confirmed the presence of terrorists in all nine targeted camps, including locations in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) and the Punjab province of Pakistan.
'Nefarious places such as Muridke, the hub centre of the Lashkar-e-Taiba has over the years bred infamous characters such as Ajmal Kasab and the likes of David Headley," Lt Gen Ghai added.

Assam CM slams Rahul Gandhi for ‘betraying' nation; praises Owaisi, Tharoor
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday praised several opposition leaders for defending India's stance on international platforms following the country's retaliation to the Pahalgam terror attack, while launching a scathing attack on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, accusing him of undermining national interests. Speaking during a discussion in the Assam Assembly about the successful 'Operation Sindoor', CM Sarma acknowledged the efforts of opposition figures like Shashi Tharoor, Asaduddin Owaisi and Supriya Sule, commending them for standing up for India on foreign soil. 'I am thankful to Congress and other opposition leaders, especially Shashi Tharoor, who have strongly defended India's position abroad. Leaders like Asaduddin Owaisi and Supriya Sule also upheld the nation's honour outside the country,' CM Sarma said. However, the Chief Minister drew a sharp contrast with Rahul Gandhi, accusing the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha of betraying both the nation and the armed forces. 'Rahul Gandhi did not stand with the country. He betrayed the nation. He betrayed our armed forces,' the Assam CM alleged, criticising Rahul Gandhi for raising questions about India's military losses during the conflict. CM Sarma claimed that while Gandhi repeatedly sought details on India's casualties during the operation, he showed no concern about the damage inflicted on Pakistan. 'There's a difference between questioning losses after a military operation and doing so while it's ongoing. Rahul Gandhi chose the latter — and never once asked what losses Pakistan suffered,' the Chief Minister asserted. Operation Sindoor was launched in response to the deadly Pahalgam terror attack, and the resolution in the Assembly marked a unified acknowledgment of the Indian armed forces' role in the counter-offensive. Earlier on Monday, CM Sarma asserted that the government would speed up the process of deporting illegal immigrants from the state to safeguard the indigenous community. While speaking at the Assembly, CM Sarma said: "The state government is set to use the 1950 law to expel the illegal immigrants here. The apex court of the country has also given a nod regarding this. The administrative machinery will work accordingly to make Assam free from illegal immigrants.' The Chief Minister also pressed for safeguarding the interests of Assamese people. He said, 'I am an Assamese first and a Chief Minister later.' The Assam government has decided to invoke a little-known law from 1950 -- the Immigrants (Expulsion from Assam) Order -- to fast-track the deportation of undocumented immigrants, bypassing the usual judicial process.
