BALAKOT AIRSTRIKE 2019
The town of Balakot was struck by the IAF in the wee hours of February 26 in the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan, 12 day after the Pulwama terror attack on 14 February. The IAF fighter jets dropped around 1,000 kg bombs, which reportedly killed at least 350 Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) terrorists. However, Pakistan has denied time and again India's claims of having inflicted casualties at the JeM terror camps.
