Navy Demonstrates 'Offensive' Strikes
Hindustan Times Rajasthan
|April 28, 2025
The Indian Navy on Sunday said its warships have successfully carried out multiple anti-ship firings, revalidating their readiness for long-range precision "offensive" strikes.
NEW DELHI:
The demonstration of the Navy's combat prowess came amid heightened tensions between India and Pakistan over the dastardly Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 civilians. Citing "cross-border linkages" to the horrific attack, India has already promised severe punishment to those involved in the strike that triggered widespread outrage within India and abroad.
"Indian Navy ships undertook successful multiple anti-ship firings to revalidate and demonstrate readiness of platforms, systems and crew for long-range precision offensive strike," the Indian Navy said in a brief statement.
"Indian Navy stands combat ready, credible and future ready in safeguarding the nation's maritime interests anytime, anywhere, anyhow," it said.
