Indian Air Force on Tuesday carried out aerial strikes at multiple terror camps in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa early this morning,12 days after the ghastly terror attack in Pulwama.
The terror camps in Chakothi and Muzaffarabad, both in PoK, and also in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa region were struck by 12 Mirage 2000 jets with 1000 kgs of explosives at around 3:30 am, IAF sources said.
The targets included the control rooms of Jaish-e-Mohammad outfit which carried out terror attack on a CRPF convoy in Pulwama in Jammu and Kashmir on February 14 in which 40 security personnel were killed and five injured.
The JeM control room was completely destroyed in the air strike, sources said.
