With the successful conclusion of landmark Operation Bunyanum Marsoos, the military campaign Marka-e-Haq of which the operation was an integral part, also came to a victorious end.                                                                                      

According to ISPR, Marka-e-Haq is the official name given to the broader conflict from 22nd of the last month to the 10th of this month, while "Bunyanum Marsoos" was the name given to the operation on 10th of this month as Pakistan vowed justice and retribution.                  

With the success of this operation, Pakistan Armed Forces have delivered the promise made to the people of Pakistan.

Armed Forces thank Almighty Allah for His infinite blessings, mercy, help, and divine support.

The armed forces extend sympathies with the families of the Shuhada who sacrificed their lives for the country during this conflict.

They have also extended heartfelt gratitude to every officer, soldier, airman, and sailor of the Armed Forces of Pakistan who made this success on the battlefield possible through their courage, professionalism, and sacrifice.  

The Armed Forces of Pakistan express their profound appreciation and gratitude to the brave Pakistani nation whose unwavering moral strength, resolve, and above all, wholehearted support and prayers remained with them during these trying times.

According to ISPR, the armed forces are especially indebted to the youth of Pakistan, who became frontline soldiers as the cyber and information warriors of the country and the vibrant media of Pakistan, which stood like a steel wall against the Indian media's disinformation blitz and reckless war-mongering.  

The armed forces have also extended appreciation to the diplomatic corps for effectively representing Pakistan's just case on international fora as well as scientists and engineers for developing indigenous and specialized niche technologies that were instrumental in the magnificent success of Operation "Bunyanum Marsoos".

Besides, the armed Forces extended gratitude to the political leadership of all political parties, without any distinction, for the show of unified resolve in their support for the defence of the motherland.

The Armed Forces are specifically grateful to the inspiring leadership of the Prime Minister of Pakistan and his Cabinet Ministers for taking destiny-altering decisions for the country and steering it through this critical situation.

It is pertinent to mention that Pakistan's response to Indian unprovoked aggression was a textbook demonstration of integrated tri-services jointness, enabled by real-time situational awareness, network-centric warfare capabilities, and seamless multi-domain operations. This synergy across air, land, sea, and cyber domains allowed for precision engagement, overwhelming lethality, and lightening operational tempo.

Using precision-guided long-range Fatah series missiles F1 and F2 of Pakistan Army, precision munitions of PAF, highly capable long-range loitering killer munitions, and precision long-range artillery, 26 military targets as well as facilities that were used to target Pakistani citizens, and those enterprises that were responsible for fomenting terrorism in Pakistan, were engaged in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir and also mainland India.  

The targets included Air Force and Aviation bases at Suratgarh, Sirsa, Bhuj, Naliya, Adampur, Bhatinda, Barnala, Halwara, Awantipura, Srinagar, Jammu, Udhampur, Mamun, Ambala, and Pathankot, all of which sustained major damages.

BrahMos storage facilities at Beas and Nagrota were also destroyed, which had fired missiles on Pakistan killing innocent civilians including women, children and elderly.

S-400 battery systems at Adampur and Bhuj were also attacked and effectively neutralised by Pakistan Air Force.

Military logistics and support sites, which helped sustain this unlawful operation against innocent Pakistani civilians-like Field Supply Depot at Uri and Radar Station at Poonch-were also targeted.

Military Command Headquarters which helped plan the operational killing of our innocent citizens, especially the children, including 10-Brigade and 80 Brigade at KG Top and Naushera, were completely destroyed.

Facilities which harboured, trained, and capacitated proxy elements that perpetrated terrorist attacks inside Pakistan and killed innocent civilians were specifically identified and destroyed. These include intelligence units and their forward field elements at Rajauri and Naushera.

Across the LOC, military elements including headquarters, logistic bases, artillery positions, and posts that had caused civilian casualties in Azad Kashmir through unprovoked artillery and small arms fire were relentlessly targeted and heavily damaged, until they raised white flags and asked for restraint.

The ISPR said India used drones to violate Pakistani airspace to intimidate our civilians and spread fear. All through Operation Bunyanum Marsoos, dozens of Pakistani armed drones hovered over Indian major cities and sensitive political and government facilities-including their capital New Delhi-and from IIOJK all the way to Gujarat to clearly manifest our lethal long-range unmanned capability, indicating the futility of the use of this domain in warfare.

Pakistan Armed Forces also carried out comprehensive and effective cyber operations to temporarily cripple and degrade critical infrastructure and services that were being used by Indian Armed Forces to sustain their operations.

It said the Pakistan Armed Forces possess an 'adequate' suite of very sophisticated 'niche military technologies', and only a limited number and type were used with restraint in this conflict.

Despite all this, compared to Indian relentless provocations, Pakistan's military response has been precise, proportionate, and still remarkably restrained. It was carefully calibrated to avoid civilian casualties and exclusively targeted those entities and facilities which were directly involved in orchestrating and executing the cold-blooded killings of Pakistani civilians and those carrying out terrorist attacks inside Pakistan.

Pakistan also sustained an abnormal and immediate spike in Indian-sponsored terrorism across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan while its armed forces were busy in operations on the eastern front. This further vindicates that India is directly involved in fomenting terrorism in Pakistan, and its proxies were fully operationalized during this time to distract our attention.

The resilient Armed Forces of Pakistan carried out most effective counter-terrorism operations in the western region without any pause simultaneously with the conduct of Operation Bunyanum Marsoos.

Marka-e-Haq has been a great example of the synergy between all elements of national power, with overwhelming support of the Pakistani public, to effectively counter the threat to our national sovereignty and territorial integrity.    

No one should doubt that whenever Pakistan's sovereignty is threatened and territorial integrity violated, the retributive response will be comprehensive and decisive. Pakistan Armed Forces thank and salute the Pakistani nation for its courage, resilience, and fervour during this conflict.
