PAF Says It Delivered Decisive Response to India in “Marka-e-Haq
Air Chief Marshal Zaheer Ahmed Baber Sidhu said that the Pakistan Air Force gave a strong and decisive response to India during “Marka-e-Haq,” claiming that the force effectively countered aggression across a wide operational range.
Addressing a ceremony at the Air Headquarters marking one year since the success of “Marka-e-Haq,” the air chief said that following the alleged Pahalgam false flag incident, India made baseless accusations against Pakistan. He said Pakistan offered independent investigations, but India instead carried out what he described as aggression, which was met with a strong response from the Pakistan Air Force.
He claimed that the PAF inflicted significant damage on enemy air defence systems and demonstrated superiority in multiple domains, including cyber and electronic warfare. He further stated that Pakistani cyber units disrupted enemy cyber capabilities during the operation.
The air chief said that Pakistan Air Force defended the country’s airspace effectively and targeted key enemy installations with precision. He also claimed that modern air defence systems were neutralized during the conflict and that Pakistan demonstrated strong drone warfare capabilities under “Bunyan al-Marsous.”
He added that PAF operations reportedly struck targets from Srinagar to Bathinda, describing it as a demonstration of operational reach.
Zaheer Ahmed Baber Sidhu said the success of the operation was due to strong leadership, including support from military command structures, and praised the role of Asim Munir. He concluded that the Pakistan Air Force will continue to meet national expectations and remain fully prepared to defend the country’s airspace.
