We on this forum have said that the pakistan retaliotory sirkes against indian bases was ver minimal..the claims can be for fanboys..the damage that happened was very minimal tbh...the reason fo that is the using very low amount of weapons...yiha,fatah1,cm400akg...while india used its whole airlaunched and ground launched inventory...the accuracy of mlrs wasnt that good either..however there is concret proof of it hitting a forwardl post in udhampur airbase killing an officer and injuring many :

there were runway damage too on indian bases as said by nytimes but it was very minimal too do something
Satelite imagerof bases from both sides
However,Nukta pakistan had said that there were hollow places in the imagery provided by ny times of the UDHAMPUR airbase following are the points:
Nukta Pakistan’s Core Criticisms of NYT's Article (May 14, 2025):
1. Misleading Use of Satellite Imagery Timing
- NYT claimed no significant damage at India’s Udhampur Air Base after Pakistani airstrikes.
- Nukta reveals that the satellite image NYT used was taken after two full days of repairs at the base.
- Open-source satellite images from May 10–12 show clear evidence of damage that visibly reduced by May 13, and was completely repaired by May 16.
Key Point: NYT used
post-repair imagery to downplay the actual damage caused.
2.
Selective Focus / Asymmetrical Analysis
- NYT provided high-definition images of all four Pakistani air bases hit by India, but only one Indian air base (Udhampur) was reviewed.
- Even then, no high-res image was used for the Indian target.
Nukta’s Argument: The story is
visibly biased, giving more visual weight & scrutiny to Pakistani sites than to Indian ones.
3.
Contradiction in Language
- For Sarghodha Air Base (Pakistan), NYT noted: "crater on runway"
- But for Udhampur (India), they said: “no significant damage” despite damage clearly visible in earlier images.
Critique: The use of softer language for Indian damage and stronger terms for Pakistani sites
reflects narrative bias, despite visual evidence suggesting otherwise.
4.
Accusation of Media Misrepresentation
- Nukta claims the NYT report was used internationally to undermine Pakistan’s strike capability, when actual damage & repairs indicate otherwise.
- Questions whether this kind of selective international reporting during a high-stakes military conflict is responsible journalism or geopolitical narrative-shaping.
