IndiaTimes Saturday, 17 May 2025
On May 9-10, the Indian Air Force decimated 11 Pakistani airbases in retaliation for attacks on 26 Indian locations following "Operation Sindoor." India's air defenses successfully countered Pakistan's initial strikes. The IAF employed dummy aircraft, loitering munitions, and long-range missiles like BrahMos and Scalp, crippling Pakistan's air defense and forcing a DGMO-level ceasefire agreement.

Indian Army REFUTES ULFA Claims | No strikes on Banned outfit ULFA Camps in Myanmar

The Indian Army has denied claims made by ULFA-I of a cross-border drone strike on its Myanmar headquarters that allegedly killed 19 cadres. Defence PRO Mahendra Rawat said the Army has no inputs confirming any such operation. Sources suggest the attack may stem from infighting among militant groups. ULFA-I leader Paresh Baruah remains elusive near the tri-junction with ISI support. With Myanmar’s border regions in turmoil, Indian officials remain concerned over insurgent activity and the exploitation of the porous border. #ULFAI #IndianArmy #MyanmarStrike #DroneStrikeDenial #IndiaMyanmarBorder #CrossBorderAttack #BreakingNews #ManipurMilitancy #PareshBaruah #InsurgentGroups #Tatmadaw #MyanmarConflict #BorderSecurity #IndiaNews #ULFAClaims #Infighting #ISI #NorthEastIndia #PorousBorders #SecurityAlert #ULFACamps #MilitantActivity #RupomAsom #MyanmarViolence #CounterTerror #DefencePRO #ArunodayDohotiya #NayanMedhi #IndiaDeniesStrike Also Read Operation Sindoor Reveals Multi-Front Threat: India's Strategic Wake-Up Call from Pakistan, China, and Turkey :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/operation-sindoor-reveals-multi-front-threat-indias-strategic-wake-up-call-from-pakistan-china-a-7793223.html?ref=DMDesc China Uses Pakistan As ‘Live Lab’ For Weapons Testing, Says Indian Army Deputy Chief :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/lt-gen-rahul-r-singh-81-of-pakistan-s-military-gear-comes-from-china-7791183.html?ref=DMDesc First Greenfield Shipyard, HSL, Turns 85!
