Which Sites In Pakistan Did India Target And Damage? Govt Lists Names

Technical installations and command and control centres at various places inside Pakistan were targeted by India, the Centre said.

India targeted several military installations, and command and control centres in Pakistan and Islamabad targeted 26 locations in India on Friday. 

Addressing a press conference, Colonel Sofiya Qureshi briefed on the targets selectively aimed by Indian troops in Pakistan including technical installations, command and control centres, radar sites and arms depots. 

Indian airborne weapons and fighter jets hit military installations at Rafiki, Murid, Chaklala, Rahimyar Khan, Sukhur, and Chunia.

The radar site at Pasur and the aviation base at Sialkot were also damaged by precision ammunition, Colonel Qureshi said during the press briefing along with Wing Commander Vyomika Singh and Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri.

"After Pakistan deliberately targeted air bases, Indian armed forces took a quick and well-planned retaliatory action and targeted technical installations, command & control centres, radar sites and arms store," she said.

"Pakistan military bases at Rafiqui, Murid, Chaklala, Rahim Yar Khan, Sukkur and Chunian were targeted through air launch, precision ammunition and fighter jets. Radar site in Pasrur and aviation base in Sialkot were also targeted with precision ammunition. During these actions, India ensured minimum collateral damage and losses," she added.

Colonel Qureshi further told the media that Pakistan is taking cover of civilian aircraft and misusing international air routes. 

"It is a matter of concern that taking the cover of civilian aircraft taking off from Lahore, Pakistan misused international air routes. So that they can hide their activities. Such tactics compelled the Indian air defence system to act with great patience while ensuring civilian security...," she said.
