Twelve IAF Mirage-2000 jets crossed the LoC during the early hours of Tuesday and destroyed JeM camp in Pakistan's Balakot, killing at least 350 terrorists

New Delhi: After the Indian Air Force (IAF) destroyed terror group Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) camp in Pakistan’s Balakot in an early morning strike on Tuesday, a rattled Pakistan has said that it would take the United Nations Military Observer’s Group to Balakot where the strike took place. The Pakistani authorities reportedly aim at getting the UN body to intervene in the matter, sources told Times Now.
In the past, India has usually not given much credence to the findings and opinions of the military observer group as it believes that the issue is between India and Pakistan and hence should be resolved bilaterally. Meanwhile, Pakistan has officially denied that Indian forces had caused any casualties or damages by the air strike, although it accepted that the Indian aircraft had crossed the Line of Control (LoC).

In the morning, Pakistan's army spokesman Major General Asif Ghafoor had tweeted that Pakistani jets were scrambled, which forced the Indian planes to make a "hasty withdrawal", forcing the aircraft to drop their payload in an "open area" near Balakot. However, later Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan later chaired an urgent meeting of national security chiefs and criticised the "irresponsible Indian policy."

Twelve IAF Mirage-2000 jets crossed the LoC during the early hours of Tuesday and destroyed JeM camp in Pakistan's Balakot, killing at least 350 terrorists. The air strike, which targeted one of the biggest training camps of the Pakistan-based terror group, took place almost 11 days after a JeM suicide bomber rammed an explosive-laden vehicle into a bus plying CRPF soldiers in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama, resulting in the deaths of at least 40 security personnel.
