This was a precision strike campaign by IAF. IAF goal was to weaken real time war fighting capabilities of PAF. And what was PAF doing on 8-10 May 2025? Sleeping in bunkers while 11 of their airbases got lit up like Diwali fireworks. Whole Pakistani air force got grounded so hard they need a restart. You think satellite pics are some smoking gun? Those same images show 11 of your airbases smoking, not ours. 2 Saab 2000 AWACS of PAF gone, a C-130 torched, frontline PAF fighters inside their hangars got wrecked. Couple of them in the air were knocked out by SAMs as well. Your air defence grid shredded like tinfoil. PAF lost its eyes, ears, and nerves during live, mid-op by IAF with zero retaliation from PAF.
In simple terms: Eyes blinded, Nerves cut. That’s the hallmark of modern airpower precise strikes, controlled escalation and clear operational goals.
So the question is simple: How can a side that lost C4I/C2 nodes, radars, UAV infrastructure, and underground facilities still claim it won ?
