New Delhi: Over 100 terrorists, including high-value targets such as Yusuf Azhar, Abdul Malik Rauf, and Mudasir Ahmed, were eliminated during Operation Sindoor on May 7, the Indian military said on Sunday.
Nine terror targets were identified after careful deliberations, and they were hit using precision weapons, Director General of Military Operations Lt Gen Rajiv Ghai said at a media briefing.
The Pakistan Army is reported to have lost 35 to 40 personnel between May 7 and 10 in the military offensives between the two sides, Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) Lt Gen Rajiv Ghai said on Saturday. He added that nine terror targets were identified and hit after careful deliberation.
“There are nine camps that you are now familiar with, which were confirmed by our various intelligence agencies to be inhabited. Some of these were in PoJK, while others were located in the Punjab province of Pakistan… What followed was a scrutiny of these locations,” he said.
“Operation Sindoor was conceptualised with a clear military aim to punish the perpetrators and planners of terror and to destroy their terror infrastructure. What I do not of course, is the often-stated determination of India and its intolerance to terror,” he said.
