A newly released Pakistani document has revealed further details of India’s precision strikes during the four-day cross-border hostilities last month, listing at least seven previously undisclosed targets.
According to the report, which outlines Pakistan’s counter-operation codenamed Bunyan-um-Marsoos, Indian forces targeted sites in Peshawar (Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa), Attock, Bahawalnagar, Chhor, Hyderabad (Sindh), and Gujrat and Jhang (Punjab).
These details shed new light on the scope and reach of India’s Operation Sindoor, launched in retaliation for the Pahalgam terror attack.
The document, circulated to Pakistani media, contains graphic accounts of Indian drone strikes conducted on 8, 9, and 10 May, following the initial Indian offensive on 7 May.
India reportedly used long-range precision weapons, including the BrahMos cruise missile, to strike terror infrastructure across Pakistani territory. The Indian military’s targets included high-profile jihadist facilities such as:
In response to the Indian strikes, Pakistan launched attempted counterattacks on Indian military bases over three consecutive days—8, 9 and 10 May.

However, Indian forces reportedly responded with overwhelming force, inflicting significant damage on multiple Pakistani military assets.
These included air bases, air defence systems, command and control centres, and radar installations.
On 10 May, Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri announced that both countries had reached a mutual understanding to cease all hostilities on land, sea, and air with immediate effect.
New Delhi later asserted that India’s intense counteraction on 10 May had compelled Islamabad to seek an end to the hostilities.
According to Indian officials, Operation Sindoor signified a strategic evolution in India’s counter-terrorism doctrine.
It represented a more assertive stance towards cross-border terrorism and a firm rejection of what Indian authorities describe as Pakistan’s “nuclear blackmail”.
The operation, India maintained, underscores its determination to neutralise terrorist infrastructure across the border without capitulating to the threat of escalation.
The details emerging from the Pakistani document suggest a significant shift in the tactical and strategic dynamics between India and Pakistan.
As both nations step back from the brink, the broader regional implications of May’s clashes continue to unfold with India signalling a future where deterrence is defined not just by restraint, but by rapid and decisive action.
