India hit 9 targets in Pak, but no sign of damage here: NSA

India targeted nine terror targets in Pakistan with precision under Operation Sindoor and did not miss even a single one of them, National Security Adviser Ajit Doval said on Friday, adding that the entire operation lasted only 23 minutes.

Speaking at the 62nd convocation at IIT-Madras in Chennai, he also dared the foreign media to show at least one image of damage on the Indian side and took pride in India's capability and technological abilities in neutralising the threats from across the border.

"Foreign press said that Pakistan did this and that," he said, naming The New York Times. "They wrote these things. The images only showed 13 air bases in Pakistan before and after May 10, whether it was in Sargodha, Rahim Yar Khan, Chaklala... You show me one photograph, one image, which shows any damage to the Indian side, even a glass pane having been broken, he added." In a possible reference to international media coverage, the NSA said, "They wrote what they wanted. But satellite images tell the real story—that 13 Pakistan airbases, before and after May 10, show exactly what happened."
