Pakistan's Operation Bunyan Ul Marsoos: Why the name, what it means

Overview

  • Pakistan initiated Operation Bunyan Ul Marsoos early Saturday, targeting India's Pathankot and Udhampur military bases with drones and Fateh-1 ballistic missiles.
  • Indian forces reported successfully intercepting most of the incoming drones and missiles, minimizing damage to key installations.
  • The operation follows India's May 7 Operation Sindoor, which struck terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attacks that killed 26 civilians.
  • Pakistan claims its strikes were provoked by Indian missile attacks on its Nur Khan, Murid, and Shorkot airbases, which India has not confirmed.
  • Both nations have invoked religious symbolism in naming their operations, with Pakistan's Quran-inspired 'Bunyan Ul Marsoos' emphasizing resilience and ideological resolve.
