Score.....................

My family member at MI says more were killed than 38 (these were the ones they could count, there were many who were shredded to bits due to use of weapons like RPO flame throwers, Carl Gustafs etc. He says these guys were the stragglers who escaped the main camps that were targeted during the previous covert strike on the main camps (my guess is they were targeted with arty). The main camps were deeper in POK around (12-20km) Those pigs who escaped the first onslaught were then painstakingly tracked through drones/comms to well disguised newly erected made shift launching pads. IA decided to share their movements over the last days with PMO. With the porkis playing cry baby and playa hating on the international forum, IA/PMO decided that this message should be made loud and clear.

A platoon of Paras went in silent, HAHO from well inside our territory. Their target was 3 launching pads deeper into POK, around 2-3km in. These were the larger groups, around 12 pigs at each site. Paras wasted them quietly, they didn't know what hit em, they wasted the sentries with silenced sniper shots and most were slaughtered in their sleep.. Ghataks from Dogra and Bihar opened up fire on the posts near 3 launching pads closer to the LOC (around 600m-1.2km in), the adjoining posts were destroyed rapidly :shoot:, this is where around 6-12 PA manning the posts were killed, Porkis only claim 2 PA killed, bet its 2 bodies they could recover, the rest would have been mulch.
After turning the posts to rubble, Ghataks crossed over and destroyed the 3 launching pads where they killed smaller fidayeen squads of around 6 terrorists each. Ghataks went in loud, watching them close in with heavy fire at the 3rd launching pad, it appears one of the pigs blew himself up taking half his squad with him. :rofl:The death toll inflicted by the Ghataks is not clear because they used volleys from grenade launchers, RPO flame thrower, carl gustaf. A Ghatak got close enough to stab 2 bunched pigs with his bare hands.

While the op was coming to a close, it appears a couple of truck loads of SSG BATs & Rangers were sent in for reinforcements but when they arrived and saw the volume of fire coming from the Ghataks, they got back in their trucks and ran. Ghataks then covered the Para's egress back.

Final, estimate of toll is between 60-70 killed including at least 6-12 PA.

I am glad they decided to make it public. Paltan ki ijjat especially for Bihar and Dogra restored, they will however keep a low profile because there was nothing surgical about their role. Their role was much more akin to a hammer coming down hard. My family member says that the sheer speed and brute force of Ghataks in their role was some of the most beautiful IR drone footage caught in his recent memory. While the paras were surgical, they apparently looked so routine, like they had done it a thousands time before (and they have).

i expected such attack around October end but this was quite quick seems like paras are well aware of PoK terrain (they were 3 km inside PoK as per reports)
Perfect SF op when everyone is in dark except the immediate immediate seniors and juniors.

Even my Friend in Kathua Garhwal Rifles didn't knew about it. I told him sometime ago.


Also, lessons learned from IPKF Lanka. Smaller the team bigger the results.

The Indian Army has conducted surgical strikes crossing the Line of Control (LoC) into Pakistan Occupied Kashmir inflicting significant damage to the terrorist infrastructure across the border.

The operation took place on Wednesday night and is now over, Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) Lt General Ranbir Singh told media in New Delhi.

The operation was undertaken after Indian Army received credible intelligence that a group of terrorists were waiting along LoC to cross over to India to launch terror attacks in Kashmir and other major Indian cities.

The surgical strikes destroyed the launch pads used for infiltration and has resulted in significant casualties.

This need a separate thread as previous strikes were never confirmed.

Americans tried to stop the strikes as their Security Advisor called NSA A. Doval to speak on behalf of Pakistanis "Expect Pakistan to act against terrorists"

No point in not making it public, unless of course they killed some Paki Army soldiers, every thing has already been opened to the media and public.
This operation without any doubt was conducted in the shoot to destroy fashion. Meaning many head-shoots at point blank range, setting shelters on fire, blowing up heerds terrorists with Carl Gustav instead of using just TAR-21. In other words in a true terrorist fashion operation for achieving shock and awe. Unfortunately, our reputation is such those things in public will look so improper. So let it remain under wraps.
