Indian Air Force jets crossed LoC

(UTV|COLOMBO) – Indian Air Force (IAF) jets crossed the Line of Control (LoC) and destroyed a major terrorist camp in Balakote sector, the India Today reported.

The airstrike took place at 3.30 AM, the report said.

Several Mirage 2000 aircraft dropped 1,000 kilogramme bombs on terrorist camps across the LoC.

India Today reported that the terrorist launchpads in Balakot, Chakothi and Muzaffarabad were completely destroyed in the IAF air strikes, and that Jaish-e-Mohammed Control Rooms were also destroyed.

However, a Spokesperson for the Pakistan Armed Forces, Major General Asif Ghafoor claimed that the IAF violated the LoC, and that the Pakistan Air Force responded immediately, after which the Indian aircraft went back.

India’s airstrikes come days after Jaish-e-Mohammed, a Pakistan-based terrorist group, carried out a suicide bombing in Jammu and Kashmir, killing 40 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) soldiers.
