India-Pakistan Tensions: S-400 and Bunyan Marsoos
The S-400 system, valued at around $1.5 billion, was considered one of India’s most advanced defence assets.
Pakistan on Saturday launched the military operation ‘Bunyan Marsoos’ — Iron Wall, against India and targeted several strategic installations, state media reported.
Seven sites in India were targeted including the key Pathankot air base, Udhampur air base, Gujarat air base. Rajhastan air base and Brahmos storage site, security sources said.
The operation was launched in retaliation for Indian missile strikes that hit several locations inside the country.
Earlier late Friday, India fired missiles at three air bases inside Pakistan; however, all assets of the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) remained safe, a military spokesman said.
Director General Inter Service Public Relations (ISPR) Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry at a press conference confirmed that India fired the air-to-ground missiles at the Nur Khan base (Rawalpindi), Murid base (Chakwal) and Shorkot air base.
“By the grace of Allah Almighty, all PAF assets are safe,” he said. He warned India of a befitting response, saying, “Now just wait for our response”. The DG ISPR said India also fired missiles and drones in Afghanistan.
He said India with its arrogance was pushing the region into destabilization. “We will not get impressed by this, and will fight with full force,” he added.
