The villagers also held remnants of the strike to show the extent of the attack carried out by the Indian Air Force

New Delhi: Pakistan’s bluff on the massive offensive carried out by the Indian Air Force has been exposed after videos surfaced on social media and certain news channels that showed villagers in Balakot claiming that they had witnessed huge explosions and saw people injured after the air strikes.

A video accessed by BBC Hindi shows villagers in Balakot acknowledging the strike in their village, contrary to what the Pakistan government and Pakistan Air Force claimed earlier.

“We heard a deafening noise around 3 am today. It sounded like a natural calamity. We couldn’t sleep the whole night. After around 5-10 minutes, we realised that there were explosions. When we went there in the morning, we saw huge craters and buildings destroyed. We also saw a person injured,” villagers told BBC Hindi.

The villagers also held remnants of the strike to show the extent of the attack carried out by the Indian Air Force.

​Indian Air Force fighter jets on Tuesday launched a major offensive against terrorist organisations using Pakistani soil to carry out terror attacks in Jammu and Kashmir and annihilated training camps of the Jaish-e-Mohammed, the terror group responsible for the dastardly terror attack in Pulwama less than two weeks ago.

The attack that was carried out by 12 Mirage-2000 fighter jets, ably aided by Indian Sukhoi jets that provided cover throughout the operation, around 3:30 am this morning. The payload dropped by the Indian Air Force weighed as much as 1000 kg.
