Indian Forces Reveal SHOCKING Proof Of Pak Army's Terror Nexus; 'Top Commanders Part Of…'
India has exposed the Pakistan Army's deep-rooted nexus with terrorist groups by releasing undeniable visual and intelligence evidence. Busting Pakistan's claims that only civilians were killed in the Muridke strike, India released images showing uniformed Pakistan Army and police personnel attending the funeral of slain terrorists from the banned outfit Jamaat-ud-Dawah (JuD), led by global terrorist Hafiz Abdul Rauf. Among the dead were key terror operatives Qari Abdul Malik, Khalid, and Mudassir. The coffins were seen draped in Pakistani flags, receiving state honors—disproving Islamabad's narrative and revealing the military's direct support for terrorist elements. This comes after India's May 7 precision strikes under Operation Sindoor targeted nine terror hubs across Pakistan and PoK in retaliation for the Pahalgam terror attack.#operationsindoor #india #pakistan #indianarmy #pakistanarmy #pmmodi Read More

‘What Exactly Are You Mourning?' Daniel Pearl's Father Slams Pakistani Officials Attending Terrorists' Funeral
Last Updated: They attended the funeral of three persons killed in the military strikes by Indian armed forces on terror camps in Muridke Hafiz Abdul Rauf, a US-designated global terrorist, was seen conducting prayers in the presence of uniformed Pakistan army personnel and members of the banned Jamaat-ud-Dawah (JuD) of Hafiz Saeed on Wednesday, May 6. They attended the funeral of three persons killed in the military strikes by Indian armed forces on terror camps in Muridke. Judea Pearl, father of slain American journalist Daniel Pearl, expressed outrage after photos of the event emerged. I wish these dignitaries could tell us: 'What exactly are you mourning? What role models you wish your children to revere? What have you learned from this man? — Judea Pearl (@yudapearl) May 9, 2025 India's Operation Sindoor and reports of the killing of senior Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) commander Abdul Rauf Azhar have brought the name of slain journalist Daniel Pearl back into public conversation. Pearl, a Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reporter, was kidnapped and later beheaded by al-Qaeda leader Omar Saeed Sheikh in 2002 in Karachi. Azhar was his then-aide as part of JeM, and brought Pearl to him. India did precision strikes under Operation Sindoor in Bahawalpur and Muridke, Pakistan — the terror headquarters of Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), respectively. He also highlighted the post and work of Asra Nomani, a former WSJ colleague and friend of Daniel Pearl, who added layers of personal and investigative context in a widely shared post. Nomani told CNN-News18, 'Bahawalpur has been on my map for 23 years. Danny went to Bahawalpur and knocked on the door of JeM, and he saw that it was open for business. Pakistan has been fermenting the terrorism industry…Ibrahim, the brother of Masood Azhar, the hijacker of the plane…he was the mastermind…It will be wonderful if the Indian government contact Danny's father."

‘State funerals to terrorists may be a practice in Pakistan': FS Misri junking ‘civilians killed' in Indian strike claim
Operation Sindoor 2.0: Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri on 8 May junked the Pakistan's claim that civilians were killed during India's Operation Sindoor citing the reported incident where designated terrorist attended the funeral of three terrorists killed in Wednesday morning strike. Mrisri held up the photo where Hafiz Abdul Rauf, a US-designated global terrorist and high-level Lashkar-e-Taiba commander, is purportedly seen leading funeral prayers for those who died in the Indian missile strikes. Misri said it was odd that the 'funerals of civilians' are carried out with the coffins being draped in Pakistani flags. 'It's also odd that funerals of civilians are being carried out with coffins wrapped in their national flag, and state honours are being accorded. The individuals eliminated at these facilities were terrorists. Giving state funerals to terrorists may be a practice in Pakistan, but it doesn't seem to make much sense to us,' he said. It's also odd that funerals of civilians are being carried out with coffins wrapped in their national flag. The funeral, held on Wednesday in Muridke — approximately 40 kilometers from Lahore — was also attended by members of Jamaat-ud-Dawah (JuD), the banned organisation led by Hafiz Saeed, according to news agency PTI. The three terrorists — Qari Abdul Malik, Khalid, and Mudassir — were killed in a targeted strike on terror group's headquarters in Muridke, carried out by Indian forces as part of 'Operation Sindoor,' according to news reports. Government of India has not officially released the names or numbers of the dead in the strike. Indian armed forces carried out precision strikes at terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the government said early Wednesday morning. In all, 9 areas have been targeted, the government said in the statement, codenaming the strike 'Operation Sindoor.' In one of the deadliest ever attacks on civilians in Jammu and Kashmir, 26 people, mostly tourists, were killed when a group of terrorists attacked Baisaran valley in South Kashmir's Pahalgam on 22 April. 'We have made the point very clearly that all attacks on the morning of May 7 were against carefully selected terrorist infrastructure, terrorist targets. In fact, seeing some of the coverage of the after effects of these strikes, including the funerals for the terrorists that are held yesterday, I think a lot of you have seen the reports and the coverage on media,' Misri said at the Thursday's presser.
