India Today analyzes exclusive high-resolution satellite imagery that reveals Pakistan's efforts to conceal damage from India's missile strikes at multiple air force bases. The images show the use of camouflage nets and tarpaulins to cover damaged structures at Bhulari, Murid, and Jacobabad bases. The extent of damage indicates the strikes were substantive rather than symbolic, with evidence of structural damage and potential loss of aircraft and personnel. The program discusses the strategic implications and Pakistan's attempts to downplay the impact. Additionally, India sent 7 delegations comprising 59 leaders and diplomats to 33 countries to expose Pakistan's state support for radical Islamist terror. The delegations met with foreign officials and parliamentary committees to convey India's stance on terrorism and its right to self-defense. They emphasized that terrorism promoted by Pakistan's army is a global threat. The delegates also highlighted India's economic and technological progress. Upon return, the teams met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who complimented them for effectively presenting India's voice.
