Watch: Army shows debris of Pakistani missiles downed by India's air defence systems

NEW DELHI: The Indian Army on Monday displayed debris of missiles launched by Pakistan, which were intercepted and brought down by India’s air defence systems.

The debris was shown in a one-minute 51-second video shared on social media by the news agency ANI. The video shows Army jawans standing behind a table on which the debris is placed.



This follows another video shared on Sunday by the Indian Army’s Western Command on social media platform X, related to Operation Sindoor. The video described the Army as an "impregnable wall of fire."


The video begins with footage from the May 7 missile attacks by Pakistan. These attacks were intercepted by India’s Pinaka multi-barrel rocket launcher system. The video also shows Pakistani drones and unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs) being countered by the S-400 missile defence system.



Other visuals in the video include Pakistani missiles that missed their targets and debris found in agricultural fields. The video then shows India’s response, including the destruction of Pakistan’s terror infrastructure. The video ends with the message: "Ruthless, Precision, Raw Power, Fierce and Pride."

Earlier on the same day, the Western Command had shared another video on X with the caption, "Planned, trained & executed," and the message, "Justice served."



In the video, a security personnel says that Operation Sindoor was a lesson for Pakistan, one it had not learned for decades.

India had launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, targeting nine terror-related sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied-Kashmir. This was in response to a terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam last month, which claimed the lives of 26 people, mostly tourists.

Following India’s strike, Pakistan retaliated with shelling across the Line of Control and Jammu and Kashmir, along with attempted drone attacks along the border.

After Pakistan's incursion, India escalated its response, targeting and destroying key Pakistani military and air infrastructure, including the Nur Khan Airbase in Rawalpindi and the Rahim Yar Khan airbase. Both countries reached an understanding to end hostilities on May 10.
