Based on geolocation, this video of missile strike Pakistan nuclear weapons storage facility in Kirana hills is accurate.
Tunnel entrance was struck in a precise hit. :shock:

FIRST time in global history, a nuclear armed state's nuclear warhead storage facilities are being hit.

Hitting their "nuke" storage facility? Hmmm... does the GoI, Intelligence and Military know something that we don't yet know?

- Things are moving really fast.
- Sharing this map of all PAF Air Bases (dark green) and Forward Operating Bases (light green).
- For logistics and administrative reasons, PAF concentrates its fighter squadrons in few large air bases.
- But at the same time, it has a string of Forward Operating Bases (FOB) with considerable infrastucture which are activated in times of crisis.
- FOB have considerable number of Hardened Aircraft Shelters (HAS) (some have in excess of 30) and support infrastructure and are full fledged bases.
- The green circles that you see are (probable) locations of their static, long range surveillance radars.
- Hope it helps.

Several Indian hacking groups have been giving 1000-1000 rupees to anyone who shares proof of having hacked any pakistani website. Last I heard from one of my hacker friends who is part of one such group, they had given away more than a lakh within a day!

Addressing a press briefing, Wing Commander Vyomika Singh confirmed that the Pakistan Army is moving troops towards forward areas.

Wing Commander Singh asserted that while all hostile actions have been effectively countered with proportionate responses, India has reiterated its commitment to de-escalation, conditional on reciprocal restraint from Pakistan.

"Pakistan Army has been observed to be moving its troops towards forward areas, indicating an offensive intent to further escalation. Indian armed forces remain in a high state of operational readiness, and all hostile actions have been effectively countered and responded proportionately. Indian armed forces reiterated their commitment to non-escalation, provided the Pakistan side reciprocates," Singh said.

Good point, They should go, Its a massive security risk.
I have written to the Minister and Secretary Civil aviation, also some senior officials in the ministry who might influence policy and two senior
aviation journos. I've also asked the CEO of Indigo to review his association with Istanbul and Turkish airlines.

I hope the sanskari people in our armed forces and political establishment take a note of this. The 'civilians' in Pakistan which we are taking so much care NOT to harm, are part of the problem which were trying to solve.

SHAMEFUL that we are not deliberately targetting their civilian population. We are making a big mistake by sparing their women and children.

Just like Ukraine, Any pauses will be used by the enemy and its allies to restock, resupply, re-strategize. Time to finish this to its ultimate goal, No de-escalation at any cost. Hope this is short lived.

Any info on the numbers delivered, commissioned, and operational? Are there upgrades for remote control? L-70 requires a crew of two is what I read.
Why do you need this info?

I hope we will set very strict conditions like:
1) No going back on IWT.
2) Any more terrorist attack will be treated as act of war.
3) We retain any other advantage we might have gained so far.

See the pictures and videos in the link. Now it makes sense why India is disabling air base runway which can cause only temporary stoppage of about minimum 30 minutes.
https://x.com/JaidevJamwal/status/19211 ... VzqZQ&s=19
This is huge!
Kirna Hilla, a hardened military storage site for nuclear weapons and conventional ammunitions in near Mushaf Airbase (Sargodha) hit by multiple Indian missile/bombs.

1/
Source video of screenshot.
First impression is of bunker busting munitions which can penetrate a few meters of rocky ground and explode inside. 2 near simultaneous explosions will cause most structures in middle to collapse.
Paki nuke stock hit?
2/
It's very likely that paki nukes were targeted in this strike and there have been multiple hits on the complex. Destruction of Mushaf Airbase's runway prevented Paki fighters from running interference.
Congratulations to all involved in the excellent mission planning.

The official Twitter account of the Government of Pakistan has posted footage from the video game ARMA 3, claiming it shows a real military response to alleged Indian aggression.

for me the important question at this point is what is the definition of a terror act? will infiltration bids also be classified under it? what would be the threshold for converting terror acts to declaration of war
