Pakistan Strikes: Pathankot, Udhampur Among Air Bases Destroys

In a dramatic escalation of regional hostilities, Pakistan has intensified Operation Bunyan ul Marsoos, launching a coordinated wave of missile attacks on major Indian Air Force installations. Military officials in Islamabad confirmed that six strategic airbases — Gujarat, Adampur, Ambala, Udhampur, Pathankot, and Jalandhar — were struck in what have been termed precision operations.

“Pathankot, Udhampur Among Key Indian Air Bases Destroyed In Pakistan’s Precision Strikes” — military sources stated, emphasizing the strategic importance of these two facilities. Pathankot, positioned close to the Pakistan border, is a critical forward base for India, housing combat aircraft and helicopters. Udhampur, on the other hand, serves as a key logistical and command hub for Indian forces operating in Jammu and surrounding areas.

According to a statement from Pakistan’s Ministry of Defence, the missile strikes were carried out in response to “continued Indian aggression and provocation” and aimed to significantly diminish India’s ability to launch future attacks. The strikes were part of a broader effort to “neutralize threats to Pakistan’s sovereignty.”

While the Indian government has not officially released detailed damage assessments, local reports suggest massive explosions, widespread infrastructure damage, and disruption of air operations across the affected sites. Civil aviation in the northern sector of India has also been disrupted, with several routes diverted or grounded.

The international community has reacted with alarm, urging both countries to step back from the brink and prioritize diplomacy. With two nuclear powers engaged in escalating conflict, fears of a broader regional confrontation are growing.
