On Tuesday, the Indian Air Force (IAF) conducted air strikes across the Line of Control (LoC) targetting several terror camps. An official number of militants neutralised by the Indian Air Force has not been confirmed by either side, though sources are hinting at a number as high as 350.
The IAF managed to destroy control rooms of Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and some other infrastructure. A group of Indian fighter jets Mirage 2000 struck and completely destroyed a major terror camp which was in retaliation after the ghastly Pulwama terror attack, news agency ANI said.
Sachin Tendulkar praised the IAF and wrote, “Our niceness should never be comprehended as our weakness. I salute the IAF, Jai Hind.”
