ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has officially declared the conclusion of its military counter-offensive, Operation Bunyan-um-Marsoos, marking a significant phase in the recent escalation with India. The operation, conducted in response to Indian military provocations, targeted numerous Indian military installations between May 6 and May 10, as confirmed by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
The ISPR disclosed that Operation Bunyan-um-Marsoos was a carefully calibrated response aimed at deterring further aggression and reasserting Pakistan’s strategic capabilities. The strikes, described as precise and proportionate, were carried out across multiple sectors along the Line of Control (LoC) and beyond, signaling Pakistan’s resolve to protect its sovereignty.
Furthermore, the Pakistani military has termed the entire period of hostilities from April 22 to May 10 as the “Battle of Truth.” This naming, according to official statements, symbolizes Pakistan’s defensive posture, moral clarity, and commitment to exposing what it calls “India’s destabilizing agenda in the region.”
The details released by the ISPR highlight the scale and coordination involved in the operation. According to the military, the counterstrikes inflicted significant material damage on Indian military positions while avoiding civilian areas—a reflection of Pakistan’s stated intent to avoid unnecessary escalation.
The government has lauded the armed forces for their professionalism and preparedness during the operation. Prime Minister and senior defense officials have reiterated Pakistan’s preference for peace but emphasized that any threat to national security will be met with firm resistance.
The conclusion of Operation Bunyan-um-Marsoos marks a pause in the latest round of tensions, though both nations remain on high alert. Regional observers have urged restraint and renewed diplomatic engagement to prevent further escalation. The international community is closely monitoring developments, calling for de-escalation and dialogue.
