New Delhi: Indian Army conducted multiple terror strikes against terrorists’ launch pads across LoC last night inflicting heavy losses on them. Director General of Military Operations Gen Ranveer Singh told a news conference here that he had informed his Pakistani counterpart about the Army’s strikes against the terrorists, underlining to them that they will not be allowed to cause any harm to Indian citizens.

The operation was aimed at only terrorists, and the Army had no intention to continue it, but it was fully prepared for any eventuality, Gen Ranveer Singh said. The surgical operation came in the wake of the recent Uri attack in Kashmir, which 18 India soldiers were martyred. Gen Ranveer Singh said he reminded the Pakistan DGMO of his countries undertaking given in 2004 that they will not allow its soil for any terrorist activities against neighboring countries, and sought the Pakistan Army's support for fighting terrorism.(UNI)
