NEW DELHI: Indian Army conducted surgical strikes on terror launch pads at the LoC on Wednesday night, the DGMO said on Thursday in a press briefing.

Surgical strikes were based on specific intelligence input of terror groups ready to infiltrate into India and carry out terror attacks.

Seven terror launch pads were targeted across the LoC by special forces of the Indian Army during the 'surgical strike'.

Significant casualties have been caused in these strikes," DGMO Lt General Ranbir Singh said adding, "the operation has now ended."

According to Times Now, 35-40 terrorists and 9 Pak Army men were killed in the strikes

Seems to be in retaliation to the Uri attacks a few days ago. The exact number of casualities is unconfirmed but the number thrown around is 38 terrorists and 2 Pakistani soldiers.

The concept of "borders", at least in several parts of the world, seems to be completely outdated and irrelevant. The governments may tacitly respect them, but increasingly, there are factions that challenge governments, which have no attention to them, and hunting them down can be impossible.

 

Regional alliances are increasingly important. Even necessary; the AU and other groups are the one way to address regional - not national - issues.
