Amid soaring hostilities, Pakistan has significantly intensified its military engagement with India by launching a series of drone and missile attacks, including the deployment of the Fateh-1 ballistic missile.
The operation has been officially named Bunyan Ul Marsoos, a reference to a Quranic verse, symbolizing a “solid structure” or “firmly joined wall” — a metaphor often used to represent unity and strength.
The term, drawn from Islamic scripture, likely underscores Pakistan’s message of national solidarity and resolve in the face of external aggression.
According to Pakistani media reports, the pre-dawn offensive carried out on Saturday targeted multiple sites across India as part of Operation Bunyan Ul Marsoos. The strikes followed Pakistan’s earlier action on Friday in which 26 locations in India were hit with coordinated drone and missile attacks, marking a major military escalation.
This response comes in the aftermath of India’s launch of Operation Sindoor, further fueling a dangerous standoff between the two nuclear-armed neighbors. The use of the indigenous Fateh-1 missile — displayed during Pakistan Day celebrations — has drawn international attention to the country’s growing missile capabilities and its evolving strategic doctrine.
With both sides engaging in increasingly aggressive postures, the regional security situation remains precarious.
