DG ISPR confirms martyrdom of eight Pakistanis, injuries to 35 in Indian attack

In a late-night press conference, Director General of the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), Lt. General Ahmed Sharif, confirmed that eight Pakistani civilians were martyred and 35 others injured following 24 Indian strikes across six different locations in Pakistan.

Accompanied by Information Minister Attaullah Tarar, the DG ISPR revealed that two civilians remain missing, according to preliminary information.

Among the areas targeted were Kotli, where two civilians, including a 16-year-old girl and an 18-year-old boy, lost their lives after a strike hit Masjid-e-Abbas. A woman and her daughter also sustained injuries in the attack.

In Muridke, another mosque was hit, resulting in one fatality and one injury, while two individuals remain unaccounted for. The city endured four separate strikes, which also damaged a residential quarter, DG ISPR added.

In Sialkot’s Kotli Loharan village, one shell failed to detonate, and another exploded in an uninhabited area. No casualties were reported.

In Shakargarh, two Indian strikes damaged a local dispensary, while in Muzaffarabad, seven strikes struck the Shahiwali area, destroying Masjid-e-Bilal and injuring a young girl.

The deadliest assault occurred in Ahmadpur Sharqia, where five civilians, including a three-year-old girl, were martyred in four separate strikes on Subhan Mosque.

At least 31 others, including six women, were wounded. The attack also damaged the mosque and four residential quarters.

 
Propaganda galore.

This one.

Only the gullible are to buy this.

Thanks my brother.

You having to do extra work today. Have some rest , some cold coffee please.
 
The National Security Committee (NSC), was convened under the Chairmanship of the Prime Minister of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif. The forum offered Fateha for the souls of the innocent civilians martyred in India’s strikes, extended its heartfelt condolences to the near ones of the martyrs and wished a speedy recovery to the injured. The NSC deliberated upon the grave developments arising out of India’s unprovoked, cowardly and unlawful act of war.

On the night of 6/7 May 2025, the Indian Armed Forces launched coordinated missile, air and drone strikes on multiple locations within Pakistan’s sovereign territory, including Sialkot, Shakargarh, Muridke and Bahawalpur in Punjab, Kotli and Muzaffarabad in Azad Jammu and Kashmir. These unprovoked and unjustified attacks deliberately targeted the civilian areas, on the false pretext of presence of imaginary terrorist camps, resulting in the martyrdom of innocent men, women, and children, and causing damage to the civilian infrastructure, including mosques. India’s act of aggression also caused grave danger to commercial airlines belonging to brotherly gulf countries, endangering the lives of thousands of on-board passengers. Besides, the Neelum-Jhelum Hydropower Project was also deliberately targeted in violation of international conventions.

The NSC unequivocally condemned these illegal acts as blatant violations of Pakistan’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, which manifestly constituted acts of war under international law. The deliberate targeting of civilians, including innocent women and children, by the Indian military constitutes a heinous and shameful crime, that is in violation of all norms of human behaviour and the provisions of international law.

Pakistan has been emphatically rejecting Indian allegations claiming the presence of terrorist camps on its territory. It would also be recalled that immediately after 22 April 2025, Pakistan made a sincere offer for a credible, transparent and neutral investigation, which unfortunately was not accepted. The international media personnel had already visited these “imaginary terrorist camps” on 6 May 2025, and more visits were planned for 7 May 2025. However, apprehensive of its falsehood being exposed, and without a shred of evidence about its claims, the Indian leadership, bereft of any morality, has now gone to the extent of attacking innocent civilians in order to satiate its delusional thoughts and short-sighted political objectives. Attacking its innocent people is neither tolerable nor acceptable to Pakistan. India, against all sanity and rationality has once again ignited an inferno in the region, the responsibility for ensuing consequences shall lie squarely with India.

The Armed Forces of Pakistan, in line with the exercise of the right of self defense and response framework outlined in NSC statement dated 22 April 2025, resolutely defended the territorial integrity of Pakistan, including Azad Jammu and Kashmir, against the Indian aggression, while also bringing down five Indian fighter aircrafts and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in the process.

In consonance with Article-51 of the UN Charter, Pakistan reserves the right to respond, in self-defence, at a time, place, and manner of its choosing to avenge the loss of innocent Pakistani lives and blatant violation of its sovereignty. The Armed Forces of Pakistan have duly been authorized to undertake corresponding actions in this regard.

Deeply anguished by India’s naked aggression, the entire Pakistani nation greatly appreciates and admires the bravery and courage of the Armed Forces and their timely action in the defense of their motherland. The nation stands galvanized and resolute in the face of any further aggression.

The NSC calls upon the international community to recognize the gravity of India’s unprovoked illegal actions and to hold it accountable for its blatant violations of international norms and laws.

Pakistan remains committed to peace, with dignity and honour, and reiterates that it shall never allow any violation of its sovereignty, territorial integrity or permit any harm to its proud people.

This is completely laughable "we shot down drones"!

What are they even doing in Pak in the first place?

Drones have already had successful attacks in Rawalpindi, Lahore, Sialkot etc

Pak army has done nothing in India.

What a massive failure!
 

DG ISPR says Indian government needs to transit from ‘theatrics and cinema’ to ‘actual world’​

Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry has said that the Indian government needs to transit from “theatrics and cinema” to the actual world.

Refuting Indian claims of Paksitan targetting 15 places in india, the DG questioned whether the Indian government was living the 21st centuty or not.

“Because in 21st century, every projectile leaves a digital trace and signature,” he said.

Showing video footage of the tracking of the projectile, DG said that when something was sent towards Pakistan, it is monitored and it has a digital signature.

“You cannot cook up any story you want,” DG ISPR Chaudhry said.

Anything that comes from the East, we have an eye on it: DG ISPR​


“Anything that comes from the East, we have an eye on it,” said DG ISPR Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry.

“Anything that is moving or anything that is coming, it is being monitored and being taken out.”

Talking about the projectile coming towards Pakistan, he said “we were watching it very carefully […] its trajectory, its height”. “The weapons system is there to take it out,” he said.

“It appears to be a missile, the forensics are being done to ascertain that,” he said of the debris from the projectile.

Pakistan remains firmly committed to safeguarding innocent lives: Dar​


Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said India’s “malicious” plan was designed to falsely implicate Pakistan for targeting Indian civilians and to incite anti-Pakistan sentiments among the Punjabi Sikh population to “conveniently externalise the rising communal tensions within India”.

“Unlike the policies of the Indian leadership, Pakistan remains firmly committed to safeguarding innocent lives and regional harmony,” he said.

“We deeply empathise with the civilian population of India, particularly the Sikh community of Indian Punjab, as their lives were endangered by India through the malicious use of projectiles, most probably missiles, to achieve sinister political ends.”

India dropped projectiles in Amritsar: Dar​


Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, while addressing a press conference with DG ISPR Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, said Pakistan categorically denies any intention or action that would endanger civilian population in Indian Punjab.

He said India In the early hours of May 8 launched a highly provocative and dangerously escalatory attack on its own territory in Amritsar, calling it “a deeply insidious and sinister attack”. He said three projectiles were deliberately dropped off in the capital of Indian Punjab.

The fourth projectile, he said, entered Pakistan airspace and was neutralised by Pakistan’s air defence.

Pakistan military spokesperson says ‘We will not de-escalate’ with India

Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry told a news conference: “We will not de-escalate – with the damages India did on our side, they should take a hit.

“So far we have been protecting ourselves but they will get an answer in our own timing,” the spokesperson added.
 

Only targeting Indian posts on LoC: DG ISPR​


Pakistan’s military has rejected India’s claims of cross-border drone and missile strikes, stating it has only responded with small arms fire to Indian artillery shelling along the Line of Control (LoC), and only against military targets.

In an interview with Turkiye public broadcaster Turkish Radio and Television World (TRT World), Director General of Inter-Services Public Relations (DG ISPR) Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said India’s assertions of Pakistani missile and drone attacks on three Indian military bases were “fabricated” and unsupported by evidence.

“Pakistan has not fired rockets, drones, or missiles into Indian territory,” Gen Chaudhry said. “What we are doing is responding with small arms fire to Indian military posts targeting civilians across the LoC.”


He added, “India has created a media blitz, a frenzy, claiming aircraft, drone and missile attacks across the international border. That is absolutely false. There is no electronic signature, no captured pilots, and no evidence—only media storytelling.”

DG ISPR reiterated that Pakistan is engaging Indian military positions as a defensive response to Indian shelling that he claimed has deliberately targeted civilian populations.

“These are not offensive operations. There has been no use of drones or missiles by Pakistan,” he said.

India on Wednesday accused Pakistan of attacking military bases with drones and missiles, an allegation Pakistan has strongly denied. DG ISPR said that in today’s warfare, such attacks would leave electronic signatures and physical evidence, none of which India has presented.

The general also responded to accusations surrounding the recent attack on tourists in Indian Illegaly Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), saying the perpetrators remain unknown.

“We have not been shown any credible evidence linking the attack to Pakistan,” he said. “India walked away from the offer of an independent and neutral investigation.”

He also accused India of using such incidents as political pretexts. “India has a pattern of using terror incidents to justify aggression for domestic political purposes,” he said.

“After the Karzhan attack, instead of cooperating, India responded with strikes on six locations in Pakistan, including mosques and civilian sites, resulting in the deaths of children, women, and the elderly,” he added.

Asked about potential economic repercussions, including reports of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) reviewing Pakistan’s $7 billion bailout, DG ISPR deferred, saying such matters fall under the domain of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and the Foreign Office.

Latest tensions

The latest escalation in tensions between India and Pakistan follows the April 22 attack in Pahalgam, Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), which resulted in 26 fatalities. India immediately accused Pakistan-based elements of orchestrating the attack, although no evidence was provided. Islamabad has strongly rejected these allegations.

In retaliation, India closed the Wagah land border on April 23, suspended the Indus Waters Treaty, and revoked Pakistani visas. Pakistan responded by labeling any disruption to water flow as an "act of war" and closed the Wagah crossing on its side.

The situation escalated further on Wednesday, as reports from various cities in Pakistan, including Muzaffarabad, Kotli, Muridke, and Bahawalpur, detailed multiple explosions. Pakistan’s military spokesperson, Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, confirmed that Indian airstrikes had targeted multiple locations within Pakistan. In response, Pakistan launched swift air and ground operations.


Within the first hour of retaliation, Pakistan announced the downing of five Indian fighter jets, including four Rafale aircraft, which India had recently acquired from France to strengthen its air defenses following the failed Balakot operation in 2019.

"Pakistan could have shot down 10 Indian fighter jets," Lt Gen Chaudhry said during a press briefing. "But Pakistan chose to exercise restraint."


Despite the scale of the response, Indian media remained largely silent on the losses. The Hindu, a prominent Indian newspaper, initially reported that three Indian jets had been downed but later removed the article, likely under pressure from the Indian government to avoid further embarrassment.

An American commentator on CNN stated that the potential loss of Rafale jets would severely damage India’s claim to air superiority, which it had built around the induction of these advanced French warplanes. Some experts speculated that the confrontation served as a test of Chinese and Western military technologies, particularly after Pakistan acquired J-10C jets from China in response to India’s Rafale fleet.

A senior French intelligence official confirmed to CNN that one Rafale jet had indeed been shot down by Pakistan, marking the first time that this sophisticated French aircraft had been lost in combat.

In another development, the Pakistan armed forces confirmed the neutralization of 25 Israeli-made Harop drones used by India in recent cross-border activity.

A statement issued by Pakistan's Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) on Thursday confirmed that these drones were shot down using both electronic countermeasures (soft-kill techniques) and conventional weaponry (hard-kill systems) after they were detected flying over multiple areas across Pakistan.


The ISPR described the drone incursions as a "desperate and panicked response" by India, which came after Pakistan’s retaliatory operations on May 6 and 7, in which five Indian fighter jets were downed and several military posts were struck.

Unfazed by the Israeli-made armed drones, called "loitering munitions", sent by India over multiple cities of Pakistan, including Karachi, residents of the metropolitan city poured onto the streets in an extraordinary wave of solidarity with the armed forces.

The number of Indian drones downed by Pakistani armed forces had reached at least 77, security sources confirmed on Friday.

This is a wrong move. They have been hitting Pakistan residential cities. Time to fire back on their cities and let their civilians understand what they have unleashed.

No… a strong retaliation is required but need to target infrastructure / unmanned military targets.

No harm to civilians / children please… will not scoop to their standards
 
pakistan could claim that their jets run on salt water, they have nordic valkiries which guide their missile systems and the spirits of dead Egyptian chariots occupy their tanks, and it still would pale into comparison when put up against the absolute fantastagasm of propaganda last nights indian media run was.
 
The Vice Air Marshall came across excellently. Thank Allah that Khwaja Asif, SS or Tarrar didn't do this press conference

India sought ceasefire, not Pakistan, confirms DG ISPR

Highlighting the coordinated efforts of the Pakistan Army, Navy, and Air Force, DG ISPR said, “All three services responded efficiently and decisively under Operation Bunyan-un-Marsoos.”

He particularly praised the country’s air defence systems, which were fully activated and performed with distinction.

“Our forces are always alert. Whether it’s a move or a misadventure, we are ready,” he warned.

On the Kashmir issue, he stressed that lasting peace is not possible without a just resolution in accordance with the aspirations of the Kashmiri people. He condemned the demolition of homes following recent events in Pahalgam.

He reaffirmed Pakistan’s consistent stance on the Indus Waters Treaty, stating, “The Government of Pakistan’s position is very clear.”

Summarising Pakistan’s reaction to India’s aggression, he concluded, “The world saw clearly who actually wanted to avoid escalation—our measured response said it all.”

In a significant revelation, DG ISPR detailed how Pakistan conducted targeted precision strikes on 26 Indian military installations using the Fatah-I and Fatah-II missile systems.

These included military sites in Suratgarh, Sirsa, Bhuj, Naliya, Adampur, Avantipura, Udhampur, Pathankot, Bathinda, Barnala, Halwara, Srinagar, Jammu, Mamun, and Ambala.

Notably, two Indian S-400 air defence systems in Adampur and Bhuj, along with BrahMos missile storage depots in Beas and Nagrota, were neutralised. Command centres and radar systems in Uri and Poonch were also destroyed.

The strikes specifically targeted locations linked to attacks on civilians in Azad Jammu and Kashmir, keeping civilian safety as a top priority.

Simultaneously, large-scale cyber operations disrupted India’s military infrastructure. Armed Pakistani drones also carried out surveillance over Indian cities, including New Delhi, showcasing Pakistan’s strategic reach and technological prowess.

He saluted the youth of Pakistan and acknowledged the media for standing firm against disinformation. Praising national unity, he thanked the Prime Minister, cabinet, and political leadership for their support, calling it a historic example of collective resolve.

Operations in Rajouri and Nowshera dismantled Indian intelligence networks involved in cross-border terrorism. Some hostile elements even surrendered, raising white flags after retaliatory action by Pakistani forces.

Indian drones also attempted intimidation through airspace violations, but Pakistan’s drone response proved its defensive strength.

“Our response met all three commitments: it was powerful, its timing and method were our own choice, and the world, not just Indian media witnessed it,” he said, concluding with prayers for the injured and tributes to martyrs.

Pakistan Navy maintained high alert after India’s false flag operation: Vice Admiral Rab Nawaz

Vice Admiral Rab Nawaz confirmed that the Pakistan Navy was fully prepared and on high alert following India’s false flag operation.

He revealed that Indian naval movements, especially around the ship Ratna Gri near Pakistan’s maritime boundary on May 6 and 7, were closely monitored.

Though the vessel was 400 nautical miles from Pakistan’s territorial waters, the Navy kept it under constant watch.

Strategic readiness ensured safe passage for commercial ships, and the Navy’s vigilance prevented any escalation. He noted that India backed off when civilian targets were hit, underlining the Navy’s preparedness.

Pakistani naval forces also tracked Indian submarines and aircraft, securing coastal zones. Measures were taken to counter potential missile threats to Karachi, confirming the Navy’s state of readiness.

PAF scored clear victory in aerial combat: Air Vice Marshal Aurangzeb

Air Vice Marshal Aurangzeb credited Pakistan’s success to divine help and strategic foresight. He shared that the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) successfully downed multiple Indian aircraft and thwarted Indian aerial aggression.

Pakistan’s air defence system performed with excellence, thanks to constant readiness.

He praised Air Chief Marshal Zaheer Ahmad Babar for his leadership, attributing the air operations’ success to his vision.

He stated that India attempted drone attacks on civilian areas, but Pakistan’s radar systems and GPS jamming technology neutralised those threats effectively.

He revealed that the aerial combat score stood at 6-0 in Pakistan’s favour, underscoring PAF’s superior capabilities.

He concluded that the careful interception of Indian drones prevented civilian harm and reaffirmed Pakistan’s air supremacy in the conflict.

11 soldiers martyred, 78 wounded while defending Pakistan in Indian attack: ISPR

At least 11 soldiers were martyred and 78 wounded while defending Pakistan against India’s “unprovoked and reprehensible dastardly attacks” during the recent escalation between the neighbours, said the military’s media wing in a statement on Tuesday.

The military confrontation between India and Pakistan came as the former blamed Islamabad for the Pahalgam attack. On the night of May 6-7, New Delhi launched a series of air strikes on Pakistan under the banner of Operation Sindoor, resulting in civilian casualties. Both sides then exchanged missiles, which stretched over the week. It took American intervention for both sides to finally drop their guns.

On Saturday, when tensions between the two countries peaked, US President Donald Trump announced that a ceasefire had been reached between India and Pakistan.

According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), 40 civilians — including seven women and 15 children — lost their lives in the Indian aggression, and 121 others sustained injuries.

The martyrs from the Pakistan Army include Naik Abdul Rehman, Lance Naik Dilawar Khan, Lance Naik Ikramullah, Naik Waqar Khalid, Sepoy Muhammad Adeel Akbar and Sepoy Nisar, as per the statement.

The martyrs from the Pakistan Air Force include Squadron Leader Usman Yousuf, Chief Technician Aurangzeb, Senior Technician Najeeb, Corporal Technician Farooq, and Senior Technician Mubashir.

“Pakistan Armed Forces mounted a resolute response under the banner of Marka-i-Haq, delivering precise and notch-up retributive strikes through Operation Bunyanum Marsoos”, stated the ISPR in its statement.

“Their noble sacrifice of martyrs is an enduring symbol of courage, devotion, and unwavering patriotism — etched forever in the nation’s memory,” the statement said. “Let there be no ambiguity: any attempt to challenge Pakistan’s sovereignty or territorial integrity, ever again, shall be met with a swift, full-spectrum, and decisive response.”

Paying tribute to the martyred civilians and military personnel, the ISPR offered heartfelt prayers for the recovery of the injured.

“Let there be no ambiguity: any attempt to challenge Pakistan’s sovereignty or territorial integrity, ever again, shall be met with a swift, full-spectrum, and decisive response,” the statement read while reaffirming that the nation “remains resolute in the face of aggression.”

PM Shehbaz Sharif has announced that Youm-e-Marka-i-Haq will be observed every year on May 10 on the “magnificent success” of Operation Bunyanum Marsoos. Friday, May 16, 2025, will be observed as a day to pay tribute to the armed forces for achieving magnificent success on the defence front and to bow before God in gratitude, he added.

'Nobody dare stop water of Pakistan': DG ISPR warns India of 'generational consequences' over IWT

The chief military spokesperson has warned India over its threat to cut Pakistan’s share of water from the Indus River system, saying such a move would trigger consequences lasting for generations, as tensions between the nuclear-armed rivals continue to surge.

If India weaponises water and blocks the flow of an Indus River tributary, DG ISPR Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said, “It is some madman who can think that he can stop water of 240 million plus people of this country. I hope that time doesn’t come, but it will be such actions that the world will see and the consequences of that we will fight for years and decades to come. Nobody dare stop water of Pakistan.” He said this in an interview with Arab News.
