Pakistan celebrates Navy Day to pay tribute to heroes of 1965 War

Pakistan celebrates Navy Day to pay tribute to heroes of 1965 War.

The heroes of the 1965 war fought against a much bigger adversary with absolute courage and sacrificed their lives to defend the motherland.

This day commemorates the “Operation Dwarka”, codenamed “Operation SOMNATH”, in which Pakistan Navy’s seven major warships proceeded on an audacious mission inside enemy territory.

They destroyed significant shore installations including an Indian radar station and a radio beacon at Dwarka, and inflicted irreparable damage to Indian pride.

During the 1965 war, Pakistan Navy submarine, Ghazi, emerged as a formidable deterrent, symbolizing Pakistan’s operational superiority and raising stakes for the enemy harboring hostile intentions towards the homeland.
