Pakistan army using cheap rockets, behaving like Hamas: Defence sources

Send Push
NEW DELHI: As Pakistan launched airstrikes in several Jammu regions on Thursday, its army used "cheap rockets" and was "behaving like Hamas terror group", PTI reported citing defence sources.

Indian Armed Forces intercepted eight missiles from Pakistan directed at Satwari (Jammu Airport), Samba, RS Pura and Arnia.

Incidentally, there were reports of a meeting between ISI and Hamas operatives in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Visuals and footage from Jammu strongly resemble a Hamas-style attack on Israel that took place on October 8, using multiple cheap rockets.

Additionally, Pakistani forces initiated unprovoked shelling along the Line of Control in Kupwara and Baramulla districts late Thursday evening, prompting a strong response from the Indian military, officials reported.

The shelling targeted the Boniyar sector in Baramulla and the Tangdhar sector in Kupwara, though no casualties have been reported so far.

A complete blackout has been enforced in Akhnoor, Kishtwar, Samba and other Jammu regions. Blackout has also been imposed in Amritsar, Jalandhar, Jaisalmer, Gurdaspur in Punjab along with Bikaner, Rajasthan.

This came after India launched Operation Sindoor targeting nine terrorist sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Defence minister Rajnath Singh said that 100 terrorists were eliminated in the operation.
