    “Our army has demonstrated extreme bravery”, said Union Minister Prakash Javdekar in the first comment by a senior government functionary on the cross-border strike.

    “The entire country is standing with the armed forces, he said, around the same time Prime Minister Narendra Modi met senior ministers and advisors for a review at a top security meet.

    Congress president Rahul Gandhi has welcomed the cross border action. In a tweet, he said “I salute the IAF pilots”.

    According to top government sources, the Balakote camp is spread around 6 to 7 acres and is the biggest Jaish e Mohammed camp in Pakistan.

    A top intelligence source confirmed the strike at one of the biggest Jaish e Mohammed camp in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. According to analysts, the strike confirmed that India will deploy full spectrum deterrence if hit by a terror strike by Pakistan based terrorist group.

    “The Modi government made it clear from Uri 2016 that every terror strike will be met with a retaliation,” said a top diplomat. “The question in the past was should we or should we not. Now it is when where and how”.

    The attack that killed 40 CRPF troopers in Pulwama in south Kashmir had raised tensions between India and Pakistan. The suicide bombing had led to calls for punitive strikes against Pakistan for harbouring terrorists.

    Pakistan’s Director General of Inter Services Public Relations Pakistan, Asif Ghafoor, tweeted, “Indian aircrafts intruded from Muzafarabad sector. Facing timely and effective response from Pakistan Air Force released payload in haste while escaping which fell near Balakot. No casualties or damage.”

He said one person is injured. You guys are claiming 200-300 deaths?
Yes becuase there were multiple targets that got hit and at multiple places not just one, the figure which we are quoting is of combined casualties!!

2008 they were intercepted in time and were not allowed to release weapons even in jungle.

As I have repeated, they did not release weapons, and what they did release was unintentional on their part.

Here let me beat you with your own stick, not that it will help your mental status but worth a try.
Your esteemed Indian media is showing this video to back up Indian claims....very impressive except these are PAF F-16s carrying out a mid-night flypast on 14th August a few years earlier.:lol:

See , I requested that you take help from others with my question.
I asked you how PAF will respond to this attack. Are you saying they are good only for flypasts and flares ?
Don't be so hard on the paf.

They made it that far in seconds? That's what ISPR is claiming, that it lasted seconds.

They have to save face also.

Also it was ISPR, which admitted that attack happnned in Balakot near Muzzafrabad.

Now you can calculate IAF needs, to come inside, complete their mission and go back.

Maybe they did not shoot down aircraft intentionally? It's not worth it for a failed op.
