In the wake of Pakistan's attempted aerial and drone offensives following the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, the Indian Armed Forces have released details of Pakistani military assets neutralised during India’s coordinated defensive and retaliatory operations. The revelation came during a briefing by senior commanders, including Air Marshal AK Bharti, who outlined India’s integrated response involving indigenous weapon systems, real-time command networks, and precision strikes.

Bharti confirmed that all Indian military bases and systems remain fully operational and ready to undertake future missions. The Indian military displayed wreckage and visual proof of several Pakistani platforms that were destroyed or intercepted. These include fighter jets, drones of foreign origin, and radar installations.
