After India’s operation vermilion, in which nine deep terrorist sites were destroyed inside Pakistan, Pakistan tried to attach several military goals on the night of 7 May.

These were neutralized by integrated counter UAS grids and air defense systems. The debris of these attacks is now being recovered from many places that prove Pakistani attacks.

The Indian Air Force S-400 Sudarshan Chakra air defense missile systems were fired against the target of moving towards India on Wednesday night. Many domain experts told ANI that the goals were successfully neutralized in the operation. An official government is awaiting confirmation.

On Thursday morning, the Indian Armed Forces targeted air defense radars and systems at several places in Pakistan. The Indian reaction has been in the same domain with the same intensity as Pakistan. It is firmly learned that an air defense system in Lahore has been neutralized.

Sources said more than 100 terrorists were abolished with a series of accurate attacks launched in the early hours of Wednesday.
