2025

A mere 50-kilometre error cost one of the two countries dearly. The Godzilla Formation of Indian Rafale jets was the package that Narendra Modi had been waiting for for six years. If there is one example of e-warfare, radars and cyber warfare in modern history, then, it is the Pak-India "One Hour War" in May. The Indian attack was a war of aggression, a power projection. Indian fighter jets had locked the entire eastern border of Pakistan from the Indian Ocean to Kashmir. How are you, friends? I am Faisal Warraich. On the intervening night of May 6 and 7, 2025, a historic battle took place between India and Pakistan, a battle that changed the character of the traditional war between the two atomic powers. Three characteristics of this war were completely new. One is that for the first time, the professional air forces of the two atomic powers came face-to-face and with killing intents. Otherwise, in the last four decades, only very powerful air forces had been attacking a very weak enemy. As in Syria, Yemen and Gaza, Russian, Israeli and American jets used to bomb and these countries could not defend themselves. The last real battle of professional armies was between the British and Argentine air forces in 1982, which is called the "Falklands War." After that, there were some clashes of aircraft in the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s. Both of these were old-style dogfights and even in these, more than 40 aircraft never came face-to-face. But in this one-hour war of Pakistan and India, more than 100 aircraft were in action. In this war, for the first time in history, the radar, electronic and cyber warfare expertise of two professional armies was going to be tested. Another modern aspect of this war was that this fight was not a traditional dogfight but was fought with "beyond visual range" missiles. Because in a traditional dogfight, fighter pilots would come in front of each other, lock on to them and then hit them with guns or missiles. But in this battle, the planes without face to face each other, from hundreds of kilometres away, through a complex system of electronic warfare, were to lock and hit the Beyond Visual Range fighter jets. India named this operation Operation Sindoor. According to India, the aim of this operation was to respond to the April 22 Pahalgam terrorist attack by targeting the so-called bases in Pakistan from where the Pahalgam attack was planned. However, the fact was that India was unable to provide any proof to any country in the world that the tragic Pahalgam tragedy was in any way linked to Pakistan. Rather, it was unable to even convince a single country in the world that Pakistan was involved in these attacks. It seemed that Pahalgam was a false flag operation, about which the intelligence agencies of all the major countries had briefed their governments. Or that they were not convinced of the Pakistani link in this attack. So, from the very beginning, it was not a justified war , nor was it a defensive war, nor was it retaliation. Because Pakistan did not attack India. So, in philosophical and military terms, it was purely a war of aggression, power projection, a war of necessity. Because Prime Minister Modi had been waiting for six years to see when the French Rafale fighter jets would arrive and they would attack Pakistan. He had not forgotten the defeat in the short battle of 2019, the destruction of one of his MiG aircraft, and the capture of the Indian pilot. So, Operation Sundaro was actually an "honour restore" or "settle the score" war. Well friends, the Indian Air Force activated all its bases for this war, which were spread from the Arabian Sea in the south to occupied Kashmir in the north. That is, the entire eastern border of Pakistan was covered. These included Srinagar, Awantipora, Ambala, Bathinda, Suratgarh, Bikaner, Jodhpur, Uttarlai, Bhuj and Nalia airbases. The Sandru operation was to be led by French Rafales, which were to take off from Bathinda. Along with this, Mirage 2000, Sukhoi-30 and MiG-29 jets were also participating in the mission in large numbers. Some Jaguar and Tejas aircraft were also made part of the operation, but they were only in a supporting role. AWACS aircraft were also in the air to guide the jets. The Indian aircraft were also supported by the Russian-made S-400 air defence system. One unit of this system was installed at Adampur in Indian Punjab and the other at Bhuj airbase in Gujarat. These systems, with a defence range of 400 kilometres, were capable of detecting and shooting down aircraft from far away in Pakistani airspace. After midnight on the night of May 6 and 7, Indian aircraft received orders to attack Pakistan. 72 fighter jets from 10 Indian airbases began to take off. After reaching the airspace, these aircraft spread out in separate formations from Rajasthan to occupied Kashmir. The top formation of these aircraft was the one that had Rafale aircraft and was named "Godzilla" by the Indian Air Force. Curious fellows, when the Indian aircraft were taking off , the nerve centres of the Pakistani Air Force were watching the Indian formations live on the screens of their operation rooms. Radars and digital systems on the Pak-India border were providing digital signals of the entire situation. Because Pakistan was on high alert after the Pahalgam attack on April 22, when Indian leaders started making threats. Pakistani aircraft were also conducting security flights, combat air patrols, and caps during the day and night. Pakistan's early warning AWACS aircraft were also watching the movements of enemy jets in the air. Due to the high alert, Pakistani pilots were kept in waiting areas near the runways for quick retaliation. For the first response by Pakistan, five forward airbases, Bholari, Shahbaz, Rafiqi, Mushaf, Minhas and Peshawar were kept ready. Dozens of aircraft were also on alert at other airbases as backup. As soon as the Air Force Headquarters realised on the night between May 6 and 7, that the enemy was about to carry out a major operation, the Pakistan Air Force also received the order to fly. Pakistan's counter-attack against the Indian aircraft started within just two minutes. In the next few minutes, at least 42 Pakistani aircraft were in the air. Among the Pakistani aircraft, the Chinese-made J-10C aircraft were on the front line. They were flown by the Cobras of the No. 15 Squadron of the Pakistan Air Force. These planes took off from the PAF airbase Manhas in Kamra. At least 20 J-10Cs were stationed at this base, of which 8 were sent to engage the enemy and two were in reserve. Another 24 planes were in the supporting role of the J-10Cs. These were J-17 Block IIIs and Mirages. Probably a few F-16s were also part of this fight. But it was the J-10Cs at the front. The Pakistani planes were also supported by early warning, or AWACS, aircraft and air defences on the ground. By 1 am, the planes of both Pakistan and India had come face to face across the border. Including the AWACS and other supporting aircraft, on both sides, there were about a total of 115 to 125 jets. No pilot on either side could see their enemy planes. Only a few dots on the screens were showing where the enemy was in the air. These dots were to be tracked and attacked. It was apparently just like a video game. This was a completely new war in its character, unlike anything that had been fought before. In this war, Indian pilots were ordered not to enter Pakistani airspace under any circumstances. There were two reasons for this. One is that a few years ago, in 2019, Pakistan shot down Indian pilot Abhinandan's MiG-21 aircraft. The Pakistani Air Force had forced the aircraft to enter its airspace by manoeuvring because its electronic communication had been jammed. after which, it became easy to bring it to its side by dodging it. When the aircraft entered Pakistani airspace, it was shot down. Pakistan had captured its wreckage and arrested the pilot as well. The videos of the destroyed aircraft and the pilot had greatly embarrassed the Indian government and the Air Force. So, to avoid any embarrassment again, there were strict orders this time that no matter what happened, Indian aircraft would not enter Pakistani airspace. Interestingly, according to India, Abhinandan, who was a war hero and believed to have shot down Pakistani F-16s, which was obviously a 100% lie, should have been part of Operation Sundaro. But the fact was that he was not allowed even to come close to Operation Sundoor. Perhaps India did not want to demoralise its pilots, so it did not take this risk. So, the other reason for the Indian jets to stay in its airspace was that the Pakistan Air Force had the PL-15 missiles. The Indian Air Force estimated that these Pakistani missiles had a range of 145 kilometres. Therefore, it was necessary for the Indian planes to stay at least 150 kilometres behind the Pakistani border so that they could not be targeted within this range. But surprisingly, the intelligence of the Indian Air Force was not correct. That is because the range of the PL-15 missile was not 145 but 200 kilometres. It was a huge strategic blunder, which was very costly for the Indian leadership both militarily and politically. Friends, the long-range French missiles installed in the Indian planes were Meteors. Their maximum range was up to 150 kilometres and this was an open secret; the Pakistan Air Force knew it well. Since Pakistan could see the position of the Indian jets precisely in its command and control centres, they maintained this distance from the Indian jets in their airspace. And in this, the PAF had a narrow strategic advantage of 50 kilometres, which Pakistan could use to its full advantage. Then the Pakistani forces were ordered not to respond until India launched an attack so that it would be proven that India was the aggressor, not us. At 1:05 am, the Indian forces launched the attack. Indian planes and the Indian Army deployed along the Line of Control also opened fire on Pakistan. The Indians were firing X-caliber shells from M-777 ultralight howitzers. These GPS-guided shells were firing at a range of 35 to 40 kilometres. In the air and ground attacks, India targetted mosques, madrasas and homes at at least 9 locations in Pakistan and Azad Kashmir. These points were around Bahawalpur, Muridke, Sialkot, Shakargarh, Kotli and Muzaffarabad. At least 31 civilians, including innocent children and women, were killed in these attacks. Several mosques and their attached family quarters were destroyed. When the Indian army launched an aggressive attack on Pakistani sovereign territory, Pakistan now had legal justification to retaliate according to international law. The positions of the Indian jets were already clear in the command and control centres, so now they were all legitimate targets. The historic war of beyond-visual range missiles had begun. Curious Fellows, the first step to hitting any aircraft in modern warfare, it is to lock it. When an aircraft is locked, it takes such manoeuvres to break the lock, which are called evasive manoeuvres. In this, the aircraft takes sharp turns up and down quickly. Just like a wrestler who is in the grip of an opponent in the arena and is trying his best to release himself. Sometimes he succeeds, and sometimes he does not. So in the modern form of dogfight, lock and unlock is the name of a continuous effort in which the pilots have only a few seconds. In this game, Pakistan had a lot of technical advantages over Indian aircraft from the beginning. One advantage, as you already know, was that the Indian Air Force had incorrect information about Pakistani missile ranges and this was a deadly mistake, and because of this, its aircraft came within the killing range unaware. The second advantage was that Pakistan's expertise in electronic warfare was much greater than India's. Pakistan Air Force commanders monitored the verbal, non-verbal linked and radar communications of Indian aircraft in their war rooms. Moreover, this PAF could also jam the communications of the Indian Air Force. That is, Pakistan had an advantage over India in both cyber warfare and electronic warfare Friends, with these two big advantages, Pakistan started intercepting Indian aircraft. First, to confuse the enemy aircraft, without locking on any of the enemy aircraft, a missile was fired between the formation of Indian jets. This is called "RAPPI" in technical language. This gives the enemy an opportunity to retreat without fighting , so that he understands the superior power of the opponent and refrains from fighting. Pilots in target jets can see this missile coming but cannot understand which aircraft is its target. Because everyone thinks that another plane is locked, but it is not. This rapid fire reaches its targeted range and blasts, which spreads panic in the enemy formation. All the pilots start communicating with each other and the superior army understands a lot by hacking this communication. So Pakistan was the first to use this technique against Indian planes. A PL-15 missile was fired on the Punjab border, between the Indian jets' formation. When the missile exploded somewhere between these planes , according to the PAF, at least one Indian plane was damaged by its debris. But what damage was done is not confirmed, Yes, it is confirmed that no Indian aircraft was destroyed in this attack. After this, Pakistan started locking Indian aircraft across the Line of Control rapidly. On the other hand, Indian aircraft were also trying to lock Pakistani aircraft but were unable to do so repeatedly due to electronic disruption. Pakistan and India had a mismatch in EV, electronic warfare in which Pakistan had a clear superiority. Pakistan continuously disrupted Indian radars and non-verbal communications for an hour and this quality was not in the Indian estimation. While Indian aircraft could not lock and hit a single Pakistani fighter in the entire battle , the Pakistani Air Force locked several aircraft, of which the technical evidence of seven was also shown in the press conference on May 9. It was thus that PAF from J-10C aircraft fired PL-15 missiles towards seven Indian jets, including France's super hit Rafale aircraft. This landmark aircraft of the 4.5th Generation is the best fighter jet in the world and it detects the incoming attack with its radar system. But for this, it is necessary that the radar system of the incoming missile is on. While the PL-15 missiles that Pakistan had fired, had their radar system was temporarily turned off. During this time, these missiles were being guided by AWACS aircraft. The Indian radar system was jammed, so it was also unable to pass information to its aircraft. In such a situation, when the PL-15 missiles had reached 30 kilometres close to the Indian locked aircraft, then their radar system was turned on. That is, now the Indian pilots of Rafale aircraft and others could see on the radar screens of their aircraft that a missile was coming towards them at the speed of Mach 3, three times the speed of sound. But this 30 kilometres distance to a missile travelling at Mach 3 speed was to take a maximum of only 30 seconds to cover. So the pilots had no time for any manoeuvre. The only option left was to pull over and jump from the ejection seat. That is, save their lives with the automatic parachute system or make a last-ditch effort to save the plane in the last 30 seconds, in which their own lives could also be at stake. The Indian Air Force is a brave and professional army, so we cannot say how many pilots pulled over and how many tried to manoeuvre. But we do not know how many Indian pilots died in this one-hour battle. Because Indian officials have not clarified their losses. But according to the PAF, they had electronic evidence of the destruction of at least six Indian planes at the time they were hit. While the seventh plane was apparently hit, its destruction could not be confirmed by ground intelligence. Therefore, the Pakistan Air Force, PAF does not claim the destruction of the seventh Indian aircraft. The six aircraft for which the PAF takes credit include three Rafales, a Mirage 2000, a Sukhoi-30 and a MiG-29. The wreckage of at least four of these aircraft fell in occupied Kashmir and one in the Bathinda area of ​​Indian Punjab. That is, around the same base from which the Rafale aircraft of the Godzilla formation took off. An important piece of evidence of the destruction of the Rafale aircraft was later presented by the Pakistan Air Force in a press conference. The PAF played the conversation of the wingman of the fourth Rafale aircraft of the Godzilla formation with the ground radar in which he was asking that I was not getting contact with my third aircraft and that I had also seen an explosion in the air. A fight between the two air forces continued for more than an hour. During this time, the Indian aircraft could not fire a single missile at the Pakistani jets. Their radars and communications were also being jammed repeatedly. When India lost at least six aircraft , the Pakistan Air Force gradually began to disengage itself under a strategy. That is, it gave the enemy aircraft a chance to get out of the target range. This is actually the best technique to keep escalation control in its hands , to give the enemy a way out. All mature militaries use this technique so that the war does not get out of control to become a war of egos. To avoid a perpetual war, each army gives the other a way out. So the Pakistani Air Force stopped locking the Indian aircraft and disrupting communications. The Indian Air Force used this safe passage and turned their aircraft on the bases on the ground. The Pakistan Air Force planes also returned to their bases. During this time, Pakistan's air superiority was proven in such a way that India had lost six of its planes while not a single Pakistani plane was hit. In the one-hour battle, the Pakistani Air Force had complete air dominance. Indian jets, far from hitting Pakistani jets, could not fire even a single missile. In this battle, not only India but also the French company that makes Rafale aircraft suffered a lot. Because till date, Rafale had never been hit, and this was its biggest marketing, and these planes were being sold out on this basis. But now at least three Rafales had been confirmed to have been shot down in just one hour. India tried very hard to hide this great embarrassment, but for two reasons, it could not hide the destruction of its planes. First of all, the reason why Vice Marshal Aurangzeb of the Pakistani Air Force held another detailed press conference with electronic signals on May 11, called the international media and showed how Pakistan hit Indian planes in retaliation. He also showed evidence of complete jamming and hacking of the Indian Air Force’s communication systems. While the Indian Air Force also held a detailed press conference on the same day, i.e. May 11. But nothing was clearly stated in it. Neither electronic signals were shown that they had hit any Pakistani plane or not. Neither did they admit or deny the destruction of their planes. Rather, the body language of the Indian officials in the press conference was also very depressed. It gave the message to the whole world that despite the technological superiority of the Rafale planes, Narendra Modi has failed in achieving his objectives. The second proof of the destruction of the Indian planes was that the very next day, the wreckage of the crashed planes was found in the occupied Kashmir and the Indian territories. For example, one video was of a plane crashing near Akhnoor, smoke rising from the wreckage. The other video was from Pulwama. It showed pieces of a plane. The Indian newspaper The Hindustan Times reported the news of the plane crash in Bathinda. This news was available on their website till the date of uploading this video. Apart from this, India's moderate newspaper 'The Hindu' tweeted that three planes had been destroyed in Kashmir. But later, under pressure from the Indian right wing, the daily deleted this tweet. If anything was left on Indian air defeat after that, the statement of the Indian Chief of Defence Staff, Anil Chauhan, met this deficiency. In an interview with the American channel Bloomberg, he admitted the destruction of the planes. It was clear from his words that India had lost more than one plane. Not only the media but there are other international confirmations of this incident as well. A French intelligence officer confirmed to CNN that at least one Rafale plane had been destroyed. After this, American officials also reported the destruction of two Indian aircraft, including at least one Rafale aircraft. Friends, the war did not end with the destruction of the Indian jets on the night of May 6-7. Because Pakistan had just defended itself. The response to the violation of Pakistan’s sovereignty by India was yet to come. But before Pakistan could respond, the Indian Air Force made a desperate attempt to destroy Pakistani assets to erase the loss and embarrassment of its aircraft. To show the failed Operation Sandoor as a technical victory of India to its people, the IAF started a series of drone and missile attacks on Pakistan from May 8. Now the war was entering a new phase in which the Indian leadership desperately wanted to inflict some damage on Pakistan, which it could show in public and prove its victory. Pakistan had to defend itself here too, How successful was this defence? How was Pakistan’s Operation Banyan-ul-Marsoos carried out in response to Operation Sindoor? Did Donald Trump broker the ceasefire or did the two DGMOs decide it themselves? Friends, we will discuss this in the next video, which will be the last video in this series. The mosque that the Indian Army destroyed had this written on its wall. Bunyanun Mursoos. Why did the Gulf States ask the Pakistani military leadership that we cannot afford another Gaza? Was India successful in setting up the new normal in South Asia? How did Pakistan deceive the Russian S-400 defence system? What were Narendra Modi and Rajnath hiding while speaking in Parliament? If Operation Sindoor is not over, then Operation Bunyanur Marsoos is also continuing. Curious fellows, I, Faisal Warraich. On the night between May 6 and 7, when India was conducting Operation Sindoor, targeted mosques, madrasas, and homes inside Pakistan. One of the targets was a mosque in Muzaffarabad. The roof and some walls of this mosque collapsed by the Indian attacks. But one wall remained intact. On this wall was inscribed a verse of the Holy Quran, the last two words of which were "Binyanun-Marsoos", meaning "an ion wall". With these words, Pakistan decided to respond to the Indian attacks. In response to India's Operation Sindoor, Pakistan's Operation Banyanun Marsoos did not start immediately. Since Pakistan was already in a victorious position by destroying six Indian aircraft, the Indian aggression was given time to exhaust itself. Pakistan did not want to give India the opportunity to launch a major attack on a major asset, i.e. a fighter jet or military base. But there was another reason for this. And that was that Pakistan's friendly countries were pressuring Pakistan not to retaliate. This effort had started shortly before the Indian attack. A while before attacking mosques, seminaries and civilian residences in Pakistan, the Indian leadership informed the heads of the Gulf States about the action. Indian had requested them to ask Pakistan to keep quiet during Operation Sindoor and not to respond. These Arab countries considered Pakistan weak and tried to dissuade it from attempting to strike back. You should hear this story from the mouth of Aizaz Syed, who reported the story. "Faisal, an extraordinary call was made to the Pakistan Army Chief, Asim Munir, they were telephone calls by two most important persons. These personalities are well-wishers and powerful ones. These calls were made probably on May 7 or 8, when the Indian second act, which Pakistan befittingly responded to, the matter is before it. Pakistan was asked not to respond to India if it takes action against it. This was was purpose of these calls. You can recall that before that the Saudi State Minister for Foreign Affairs also visited India and came to Pakistan, also gave a similar diplomatic message to Pakistan that Pakistan should exercise restraint This was the message. The telephone call came through it, it was sought that Pakistan should exercise restraint against the Indian response because India is a big military power. Pakistani army chief Asim Munir, as per my information and what responsible persons told me that he with respect, told the two important personalities that they did not have other option than responding to the (Indian) action It is a question of our survival. This is what General Asim Munir said. It was said from the other side that see whenever you face a financial issue you come to us. Bear in mind. A personality had also given a reference to Gaza. How is it in Gaza and lest there should be another Gaza. On it General Asim Munir answered that I assure you that we will certainly respond as it matters our survival, and I also assure that that we will not approach you in case of any financial problem. This call was disconnected after a short while, after he said so. After that, Pakistan overwhelmingly responded, which is a part of history. It is also interesting that when Pakistan and India had a standoff, and Pakistan earned huge respect globally, particularly in the Arab world, when the military and civil leadership of Pakistan, visited the capital of different states, particularly those of Muslim states, to thank over after this standoff between Pakistan and India, those two Gulf states were also included among them, or whose capitals had asked Pakistan, or General Asim Munir, not to respond. This is the same call, friends, which Indian Foreign Minister Jaishankar had said, without citing it , that he had informed Pakistan before the attack. The result of this misunderstanding of Narendra Modi was his sentence in which he said with surprise. Friends, in our first episode, you heard the story of the historic war between the Pakistan and India Air Forces and the destruction of six Indian aircraft. And after that, this matter in which India, despite pressure from the friendly states, failed to stop Pakistan. This was the background in which the Indian leadership was frustrated that how it could conclude Operation Sindoor without causing any major damage to Pakistan! What should it tell their people about what they have achieved? So the Indian leadership spread Operation Sindoor to the whole of Pakistan. The next day, Brahmos missiles and drones began to target Pakistani airbases , civilian populations, cricket stadiums and industrial areas. Indian drones flew over many cities, including Lahore and Rawalpindi and the feelings of fear and anger among the citizens started appearing in the videos on social media. The Pakistani people were angrily asking why were we not responding? Meanwhile, the Indian media had entered another dimension of the universe, taking its people along and was telling its viewers that the Indian Army had captured many cities of Pakistan. According to the Indian media, Karachi, Sargodha, Lahore, Rawalpindi and Sialkot had become part of Greater India. Obviously, this was nonsense reporting and serious Indian circles also expressed a lot of shame over it. On the other hand, it was a fact that for four days, the Indian forces kept trying hard to hit any major Pakistani target, but they did not get any trophy target. On the contrary, the Pakistani forces had shot down at least 78 Indian drones, no doubt most of them were made in Israel. In addition, many Brahmos missiles and drones, through cyber warfare were hacked and detracked from the targets. That was, they softly killed. The Chinese "HQ -9" and various Pakistani air defence systems played an important role in this defence. But you know that no defence system in the world can guarantee 100 percent security. A few Indian missiles and drones escaped and hit Pakistani air bases, one of which fell on a hangar at Bholari Jacobabad air base. This caused partial, repairable damage to the wing of an aircraft. Explosions were also heard at Noor Khan air base in Chaklala in Islamabad on the night of May 9 and 10. In addition, buildings and runways were also damaged at Mushaf, Rafiqi, Sialkot, Pasrur and a few other bases. India also claimed to have targeted two Pakistani air defence systems in Lahore and Karachi. But the reality was that both these air defense systems were decoys, models were placed only to deceive. They were not real systems. The real systems had been moved to other locations several days ago and Indian intelligence fell trap to this deception. Similarly, the Indian Army also targeted the civilian Sheikh Zayed International Airport in Rahim Yar Khan. Although this airport was rarely used except for the arrival of Arab guests. When India kept firing at Pakistan for four days and there was no response from Pakistan , the question had a question in his mind at the international and national level, whether Pakistan was not capable of responding or did not want to respond? Obviously, we have already mentioned that one reason for this was that Pakistan was exhausting the Indian aggression. The other reason was that pressure was being put on Pakistan at the international level not to respond to India. But the four consecutive days of attacks gave Pakistan a clear justification to respond with full might. On the morning of May 10, Pakistan officially launched Operation Banyanun Marsoos to respond to Indian aggression. The operation was dedicated to the seven Pakistani children who were martyred in the Indian attacks: Hawa, Urwa, Muhammad, Uwaim, Omar, Omar Musa and Irtaza. The names of these martyred children were also inscribed on the launchers from which the missiles were fired at India. The Indian Army launched Operation Sindoor at night while Pakistan launched Operation Banyanun Marsoos in broad daylight. Pakistan had two strategic objectives in this. One was to prove its military superiority over India and to show that if India escalated the war, Pakistan had all the tools, training and will to inflict more damage on India, which it could not have imagined. The second objective was to carry out symbolic attacks on all the places from which Pakistan was attacked during Operation Sindoor. Symbolic attacks were meant to keep the escalation under control, as the war could have gone out of hand if it inflicted huge losses. Mature armies do this and if you look closely, , India did almost the same for four days. So, these Indian targets, as you saw in the previous episode, were spread from Srinagar in the north of India to Naliya in the south. This totalled at least 26 installations that Pakistani forces targeted. Many of these videos were also being obtained and disseminated. For the first objective of the war, i.e. to prove military superiority, Pakistan made India's best air defence system "Russian S-400" ineffective and hit it with precision. Which meant that Pakistan had the capability to bypass India's best defense system. For this, the forces attacked the Indian bases of Adampur and Bhuj. India's S-400 system was installed at these two places, which was bypassed and hit. Many people in India and Pakistan ask how it could be possible? Actually, Pakistani pilots had undergone extensive training on the S-400 batteries available with China. They had understood the merits and demerits of this system thoroughly and had also practiced destroying it in military exercises. To target it, Pakistan had acquired the Chinese "CM-400" missiles. This hypersonic missile actually captures the radar signals of its target and then follows it and attacks. The only way to avoid this is for the enemy to take the risk of turning off its radar and detect the missile coming from some other source. But on May 10, India’s S-400 system’s radars were not off. They probably did not have the intelligence that Pakistan had the capability to hit it. Taking advantage of this, the Pakistani Thunder aircraft targeted both the S-400 systems at Adampur and Bhuj with CM400 missiles. These special missiles, while following the Indian radar signals, at a speed of four or five times the speed of sound, Mach 4 or 5, destroyed the radar section of both these systems. The next day, on May 11, Air Marshal Aurangzeb, with the help of satellite images, showed the location of the S-400 at the Adampur base. It also explained how it was tracked, and after confirming its location how the system was hit precisely and accurately. By the way, you must have seen that to contradict the Pakistani claim, PM Narendra Modi also later visited the Adampur base and addressed the Air Force personnel there. During his speech, an S-400 launcher was placed in the background. In fact, he was trying to give the impression that the S-400 system is safe. But the fact is that Pakistan did not target this launcher. Pakistan had only shown its ability to fail the S-400. And also that in its presence, it is capable of hitting any component and Pakistan proved this by destroying the Indian radar system. That is why the radar component of this system was nowhere visible in PM Modi’s speech. Although Pakistan had earlier told Indian and the world what it had targeted. If Narendra Modi wanted to prove Pakistan wrong, he should have shown radar systems and not launchers. Apart from failing the S-400, Pakistan also made another symbolic impression of military superiority. That they were dozens of Pakistani drones which reached New Delhi, Narendra Modi’s hometown, Wadingar in Gujarat and several other cities. These armed, armed drones were flying freely near Indian military installations and important buildings for several hours. India could not shoot down these drones nor hack their systems. So Pakistani forces, after delivering enough message, moved these drones to fields and deserted places away from the population and destroyed them. In short, during Operation Banyanun Marsoos, Pakistan confirmed hit at least seven Indian airbases. Two bases of the Brahmos missiles, Nagrota and Beas, from where they were fired, were also hit. Most of these losses were also acknowledged in the Indian military briefing on May 10. You have heard that Indian military spokespeople admitted that seven airbases, Adampur, Pathankot, Udhampur, Bhuj, and Bathinda stations, Srinagar and Awantipora have been hit by Pakistan. Rather, they have also said that there was loss of life and machinery here. Apart from Indian spokespeople, the attacks in occupied Kashmir, including Srinagar, were also covered by the international media. The BBC reporter said that five explosions took place at the Srinagar airbase. But at the same time, he also said another important thing. He said that the sound of an aircraft passing here was also heard. If this is to be believed, it would mean that the five explosions heard at the Srinagar base were an airstrike by the Pakistani Air Force, which was returning after the attack. That is, the Pakistani planes went as far as Srinagar and returned after bombing their airbase, and the Indian air defences were completely blind to it. Just hear this SOT (sound on tape). A major part of Operation Banyanun Marsoos consisted of cyber and satellite attacks, which are a new and essential theater of modern warfare. According to the Pakistani forces, on the Indian power supply system. many government databases and military satellites, they made several attacks and hacked a lot of data. The official website of the ruling party BJP was hacked for some time because the BJP immediately shifted it to a new server. According to another claim, which could not be independently verified, Pakistan disrupted 70 percent of India’s electric supply in a cyber attack, cutting it off for some time. The worst damage was done to the power supply of the state of Maharashtra. After cyber attacks, the failure of India's best defence system and attacks on all the bases that attacked Pakistan , Pakistan concluded Operation Sindoor's response to Operation Banyanun Marsoos within a few hours. India had been told that if India attacks inside Pakistan on any pretext, it will be given a proportional kinetic response. Pakistan is also capable and ready. After achieving its basic objectives, Pakistan no longer needed to continue the war. Because both the Modi government and the Indian army had received the message that it was not possible to settle the score of destroying its aircraft with Pakistan. On the contrary, in this attempt, Indian forces were suffering more losses. However, the Indian government and the Army spread this narrative to save face that they had also achieved all the targets of Operation Sindoor. Therefore, they also did not need to take any further action. Therefore, India made an open offer of a ceasefire to Pakistan. Immediately after Operation Bunyanun Marsoos was completed on May 10, India made this offer in front of the cameras during a briefing. You can listen to the conversation of Indian military spokesperson Vumika Singh. The Indian spokesperson clearly said that Pakistan, on the LoC, i.e. the ceasefire line, is increasing the number of its troops with the intention of escalating. While the Indian Armed Forces reiterate that if Pakistan does not escalate the war, India will not escalate either. That is, if Pakistan stops the attacks, India is ready for a ceasefire. After this ceasefire offer of India on May 10, which you have just seen, the DGMOs of both countries contacted and agreed to a ceasefire. But the most important thing during this time was that neither country had set any conditions for the ceasefire. The ceasefire began at 4:30 pm on May 10, Pakistan time. But from here comes a big international political twist in the story. That is, the official announcement of the ceasefire was not made by India or Pakistan but by American President Donald Trump on his personal social media platform Truth Social. Then he started repeating in his speeches continuously that it was he who had brought about a ceasefire between the two nuclear powers by using trade as a weapon. The American President was continuously saying this and has repeated this claim at least 29 times to date. Now the problem was that the Pakistani Prime Minister did not challenge his claim at all. Rather, he thanked President Trump. After some time, he also supported President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize. This means that after the war front, Pakistan started scoring against India in international diplomacy as well. Donald Trump described the Pakistani and Indian leadership as excellent and himself as a peacemaker twice a day. And these were what India never wanted. It had spent billions of dollars over the years to prove itself separate and powerful from Pakistan in American diplomacy. But now Donald Trump, while flouting this setup , was not only hyphenating Pakistan and India, that is, mentioning them together, but was also taking credit for bringing about a ceasefire. In other words, he was saying that India had stopped the war on his threat. Now, apparently, it was not something strange that America took an active role in the ceasefire between the two countries. World powers usually do this and the world accepts it. But the problem was that Narendra Modi was telling his people something else. He was saying that we had given Pakistan a good taste and India had stopped the attacks on Pakistan's grumbling. But Donald Trump's statements were telling the opposite story. He was talking about a ceasefire with his efforts by equating the powers of both countries. So in such a situation, the problem for the BJP and PM Modi was that how to deny the intervention of the world's largest power and its ally, the US President. If they deny it, they will anger Trump. If they do not deny it, they will have to admit to their people that India is not a global power, and a country that was taking dictations from global powers. But for them, the problem did not end here either. Because they told their people that we had declared a ceasefire of our own free will, at the request of Pakistan, Then it raised the question that if India was winning, what was the need to stop the war? And if Pakistan was requesting to stop the war , then on what conditions did India stop the war? BJP and PM Modi had no answer to all this because the reality was the opposite. They were lying. This situation was destroying the false image of India and Narendra Modi, which was built by spending billions of dollars in the last 11 years. This was commonly known as the 56-inch chest. In this image, India, under the leadership of Narendra Modi, had become the world's superman, a "wish guru" , and Pakistan was nothing more than a weak, helpless state. Operation Banyanun Marsoos proved both these illusions wrong. The Indian opposition demanded answers that the public should be told who and why had ordered the ceasefire and how much damage was done to Indian aircraft? After much procrastination, a Lok Sabha session was finally called on July 29: 80 days after the operations were concluded. But here too, instead of answering the questions, all the attention was focused on proving the Congress, which had asked the questions, was a Pakistani agent. "You take out all statements made by Pakistan and here of those who criticise us, they are one with full stops and commnas." On the other hand, Interior Minister Rajnath Singh stood on the floor of Parliament and told a huge lie. "With our defence systems, counter-drone systems, and electronic equipment, the Pakistani attack has been completely thwarted. Pakistan failed to hit any of our targets. That's all." This lie was because Indian military spokespersons on May 10, had admitted Indian losses on at least seven bases. From these things, it was clear that the Modi government was hiding a lot about its losses and the ceasefire issue. The Indian losses had now been acknowledged in the international media. All the reports were proof of this. And the proof of American intervention was that the details of Marco Rubio's contacts with Pakistan and India were also published in the international media. Even Foreign Minister Jaishankar himself had said that the US Secretary of State was in contact with India during the war. Friends, this short war changed the role of Pakistan, India and South Asia in international politics. It completely turned upside down the power perspective in South Asia and at the global level. The Arab countries, which were asking Pakistan to remain silent on the Indian attack until some time ago, started to hold meetings with the Pakistani political and military leadership. The unpopular hybrid system in Pakistan gained energy. The Army Chief was made a field marshal, meaning victory was declared by Pakistan. In the United States, President Donald Trump, for the first time in history, invited a non-president, military chief, for lunch and had a two-and-a-half-hour meeting. The confidence of the military alliance between China and Pakistan has increased a lot. Finally, friends, if you want to know who won and lost this war, do not look at it in any traditional way. Because in a traditional war, the objectives are clear. If someone captured the enemy's territory or hit the target, it was a victory. Or if someone pushed back the external attack, it was also a victory for that country. But in this short war, the victory or defeat was to be decided by perception. The clear perception of this war was that Pakistan had not only caused more damage to India but Pakistan was also superior to India in technology, tactics and professionalism. You have seen some evidence of which in the video, and on July 4, during a press conference, the Indian Deputy Army Chief also admitted this. He said that during the ceasefire talks, Pakistan was telling us which Indian weapons were active where. On the other hand, India's objective that it had set a new normal, was badly shattered. Because India wanted to set a new normal that now it would attack inside Pakistan in case of suspicion of any internal attack. Just like the US did in Afghanistan or Israel is doing in Gaza. But when India tried to impose such an attack on Pakistan, it caused more damage to itself. that is, it lost its own aircraft. The weakness of Indian air defence systems was also exposed to the whole world. That is, the new doctrine failed. If we look at the economic losses as well, India's loss is massive. Because the price of just one Rafale aircraft is much higher than the damage to all the bases in Pakistan. In the end, India's international perception was also irreparably damaged. That is, the Western world, especially America, considered India as its powerful Asian ally to counter China. But after the defeat by Pakistan, this perception of India completely evaporated that India could be a counter-power to China in any way. Rather, it was once again seen as a rival of Pakistan militarily. So, keeping all these things in mind, one can say with full confidence that Pakistan had a clear advantage in this limited war. Perhaps that is why Narendra Modi has said that Operation Sindoor is not over yet. Pakistan should take these words seriously. Because Narendra Modi still has over three years left in power. He can do any adventure or misadventure at any time to avenge his embarrassment and excite his extremist Hindutva vote bank. If this happens, it will be a completely new war. May 25 limited war will have nothing to do with it. The professional armies of both countries will enter the new battlefield with new techniques learned from this experience. We hope that the peaceful people on both sides will not let this happen because it is easy to start a war, but when it will get out of control, when the escalation control will no longer be with anyone, no one knows. Friends, the war history between Pakistan and India is very sad and long from day one. We have made wonderful documentaries on almost all the major Pak-India wars, in which we have told which country made a mistake and who won or lost. You can watch the wars of 1965, 1971 and Kargil by touching these three points. Thank you.
