'Pakistani terrorist weeping and recounting his plight': PM Modi refers to Jaish commander's admission on Op. Sindoor

Speaking at a rally in Dhar, Madhya Pradesh, Modi said the Indian soldiers had brought Pakistan to its knees in a short span of time.

"Terrorists from Pakistan had desecrated the vermilion of our sisters and daughters. We carried out Operation Sindoor and demolished the terrorists' hideouts.

"Our brave soldiers brought Pakistan to its knees in the blink of an eye. Just yesterday, the country and the world saw a Pakistani terrorist weeping and recounting his plight," the Prime Minister said on his 75th birthday.

Terror outfit JeM admitted for the first time that family members of its head Masood Azhar were 'torn into pieces' during India's strikes in Bahawalpur during Operation Sindoor in May.

In a video that has now gone viral, Jaish leader Masood Ilyas Kashmiri can be seen confirming the death of Azhar's family members.

Amid tight security, Kashmiri could be heard saying in the video, "Maulana Masood Azhar's family members were torn apart by the Indian forces on May 7 in Bahawalpur."

Meanwhile, the media reports claimed in June that Pakistan is re-establishing the terror camps and terrorist launchpads that were destroyed by the Indian Armed Forces during Operation Sindoor last month.

The operation was launched by the Indian Army as a response to the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, which left 26 people, mostly tourists, dead in the popular tourist destination in Jammu and Kashmir.

What happened on May 7?

Days after the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, the tourist town in the hilly Union Territory that draws hundreds of tourists from across India and even the world, the Indian Armed Forces destroyed nine terror camps across Pakistan and PoK by carrying out precision strikes through Operation Sindoor.

The terror infrastructures reportedly belonged to terror outfits like Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), and Hizbul Mujahideen.
