Operation Sindoor: Rafales, Sukhois Shot Down Pakistan's JF-17s, Mirages In Dogfight; India Set To Reveal Smoking Gun Evidence
New Delhi: Clouds parted. Secrets spilled. Under the cloak of night, the Indian Air Force launched a mission that would rattle Islamabad to its core. It was Operation Sindoor, a storm that tore through terror camps and left Pakistani war machines in flames. On the intervening night of May 6 and 7, the air throbbed with tension. Rafale and Sukhoi jets soared out of Indian bases. Precision. Power. Payloads locked. Targets across the border marked in red – terror launchpads nestled in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). Airstrikes hit like thunderclaps. Explosions followed. Camp after camp, bunker after bunker flattened. Over 100 terrorists eliminated in minutes. The April 22 Pahalgam's bloodshed avenged. But the night did not end there. Pakistan scrambled its jets. JF-17s. Mirages. J-10Cs. Interceptors on a collision course. The dogfight was brutal. Aerial combat at lightning speed. Engines screamed. Missiles launched. Skies lit up. And then silence. Flames fell from the heavens. Pakistan's jets crashed and burned. Sources inside India's top defence establishment confirm that enemy aircraft shot down mid-air. India watched. Recorded. Tracked every move with AWACS and ground-based radar. The wreckage? Scattered across the rugged terrain of PoK. And India has the evidence. High-resolution satellite images. Infrared signatures. Radio logs. Visual confirmation from cockpit feeds. Soon, the truth will go public. Pakistan panicked. Cross-border firing intensified. Ceasefire torn to shreds. India retaliated with full force. Missiles rained down on major Pakistani airbases. Noor Khan. Rafiqui. Sukkur. Chunian. Rahim Yar Khan – once considered strategic strongholds. Now smoking craters. One hit after another. Pakistan's Chinese-made HQ-9 air defense systems shredded. Its backbone was broken. Operation Sindoor was a verdict – justice delivered at supersonic speed.

High-tech response vital as terror evolves with drones, apps: Home Secretary Govind Mohan
Live Events (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel New Delhi: Union home secretary Govind Mohan on Wednesday outlined five key outcomes of the two-day counterterrorism seminar organised by the National Security Guard (NSG) in the national capital. Citing the recent Pahalgam attack and the retaliatory Operation Sindoor , he emphasised the need to enhance domestic capabilities and global cooperation From drawing lessons from international experiences to discussing evolving threats, response mechanisms and counter strategies, Mohan highlighted the increasing use of social media, drones, and encrypted apps by terrorists and their handlers to evade law stressed the importance of leveraging technology in counterterror operations and conducting tech-enabled counter-IED (improvised explosive device) operations."Terrorism is a global threat-one that endangers not just India but the entire world. It has jeopardised national security across continents and inflicted deep wounds on the fundamental values of humanity. According to the Institute for Economics and Peace's 2024 Report, the number of countries impacted by terrorism has risen from 58 to 66 in 2024. The entire world is grappling with the devastation caused by terrorism," Mohan April 22 this year, 26 Indians lost their lives in a terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir."Whoever attempts such acts must pay the price. That is precisely why, through Operation Sindoor, we neutralised cross-border terrorism at its source. With precise military strikes on terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, we successfully destroyed key operational bases of terrorist organisations. This stands as a testament to the military skill and professional strength of our armed forces," Mohan at the valedictory session, he added: "Unfortunately, some countries and communities are associating terrorism with their identity or faith-and in doing so, are tarnishing the very idea of humanity. This problem needs to be eradicated from its roots. Whether or not a country is directly impacted by terrorism, it is essential for all nations-including India-to come together on a united platform. We must strengthen global cooperation, share technological solutions, and above all, raise public awareness against this menace."

In precision strike era, war has no front or rear: CISC Air Marshal Ashutosh Dixit
New Delhi: The lesson from India's Operation Sindoor that took down terror targets in Pakistan is that long-range precision-guided munitions like the Brahmos and Scalp have rendered geographical barriers meaningless and the side that sees the farthest and with most accuracy prevails, the Chief of Integrated Defence Staff to the Chairman Chiefs of Staff Committee (CISC) said on Wednesday. Air Marshal Ashutosh Dixit, who is responsible for coordinating inter-service activities, said that modern technology has fundamentally changed the battlefield as has been evident in recent conflicts, including the Indian cross-border strikes. " Modern warfare , thanks to technology, has fundamentally altered the relationship between distance and vulnerability. Today, precision-guided munitions like Scalp and Brahmos have rendered geographical barriers almost meaningless," the senior officer said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villa For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas in Dubai | Search ads Learn More Undo He added that it can be seen from global conflicts like the Armenia-Azerbaijan war, the Russia-Ukraine war, the Israel-Hamas fight and India's own experience in the recent strike that "the side that sees first, sees farthest and sees most accurately, prevails". The officer said that with weapons demonstrating the ability to strike hundreds of kilometers away with pinpoint accuracy, the traditional concepts of a battle front, rear, flanks and combat zones have become irrelevant and the war zone has merged into a combined theatre. Live Events "This new reality demands that we extend our surveillance envelope far beyond what the previous generation could have even imagined. We must detect, identify and track potential threats, not when they approach our borders, but when they are still in their staging areas, airfields and bases, deep within their own territory," he said. This also reflects the Op Sindoor war fighting strategy with Pakistan in which airfields deep within its territory were disabled by long-range air-to-ground missiles , rendering it difficult for Pakistani forces to mount an aerial strike on India. Over the past few years, India has been investing heavily in stand off weapons like long-range air-to-air missiles, air-to-surface munitions and a range of missiles that are capable of taking down a target anywhere on Pakistani territory.
