India releases drone footage of air strikes in Pakistan | WATCH

New Delhi: The Indian Armed Forces have publicly released footage of their precision strikes on multiple terror camps located in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu & Kashmir (PoJK).

Colonel Sofiya Qureshi, while addressing a press briefing, showcased video evidence of several high-value terror sites destroyed during the operation sindoor. The visuals included drone and quadcopter footage capturing ammunition drops and direct hits on camps responsible for orchestrating and supporting cross-border terrorism against India.

Among the camps shown in the footage were:

Mehmoona Joya Camp, Sialkot (12–18 km inside Pakistan): One of Hizbul Mujahideen's largest operational bases, this camp played a critical role in terror activities in the Kathua and Jammu regions and was a command centre for planning the Pathankot air base attack, Col. Sofiya Qureshi added.

Sarjal Camp, Sialkot (6 km inside Pakistan): The camp where terrorists involved in the killing of four J&K police personnel were trained.

Bhimber Camp (9 km from LoC): A JeM-run facility, responsible for jungle warfare and IED handling training.

Markaz Subhan Allah, Bahawalpur: Headquarters of Jaish-e-Mohammed, the central hub for planning multiple attacks, including Pulwama and earlier fidayeen strikes. This 15-acre complex also housed JeM’s top leadership.

Markaz Ahle Hadith (Barnala) and Markaz Abbas (Kotli): Located 9 km and 13 km from the LoC, respectively, both were used for recruitment, indoctrination, and logistics support to terror outfits shared Col. Sofiya.

Muridke Camp (Lahore region): Famously known for being linked to the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks, this Lashkar-e-Taiba facility was where Ajmal Kasab and David Headley received part of their terror training.

The video footage clearly shows targeted strikes with precision weapons, confirming multiple direct hits on the camps. The Indian military emphasised that no Pakistani military installation was targeted and no civilian casualties have been reported so far, highlighting the operation’s measured and non-escalatory nature.

Col. Qureshi reiterated, “This operation was aimed strictly at dismantling the terror infrastructure. These strikes were precise, intelligence-driven, and executed with utmost care to avoid civilian harm.”

The release of footage is also aimed at countering a disinformation campaign led by pro-Pakistan handles, which circulated old crash images to falsely claim Indian losses. The Indian government has clarified such claims are baseless, reaffirming that the footage shown reflects the actual outcome of Operation Sindoor.
