Pakistan has admitted losses for the first time in the Indian military operation ‘Operation Sindoor’ last May. The country’s Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar said that the country’s Noor Khan air base was severely damaged as a result of the operation.
\nAt a press conference held in the capital Islamabad on Sunday (December 28), Dar said, “India launched 80 explosive-laden drones targeting the Noor Khan air base in just 36 hours. However, Pakistan’s air defense system was able to intercept 79 of the 80 drones and failed to intercept only one.”
\nHe said that attacking the Noor Khan air base was a mistake for India. Because it was after this attack that Pakistan decided to launch a counter-operation (Operation Bunyan Umm Marsus). Incidentally, no minister in the Pakistani government has ever publicly discussed the damage caused by Operation Sindoor. Ishaq Dar’s statement indicated that Islamabad has changed its position on the issue.
\nThe Noor Khan air base, located 25 kilometers from the capital Islamabad, is considered the most important base of the Pakistani Air Force. Ishaq Dar also said in the press conference that Pakistan has not requested a ceasefire from India.
\nHe said that after the attack on the Noor Khan air base in the early hours of May 10, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio called him at 8:17 am to inform him that India was ready for a ceasefire and New Delhi wanted to know if Pakistan was also ready for a ceasefire. “I told the US Secretary of State that Pakistan has no intention of engaging in a war.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
