After the Pulwama terror attack, India’s foreign secretary Vijay Gokhale announced on Tuesday that in a “non-military, pre-emptive” strike India had targeted one of the major Jaish-e-Mohammed camps in Balakot.
While Pakistan refused to acknowledge that India had hit any terror camp whatsoever, local media reports cited government officials who determined a casualty rate of around 200 to 300 terrorists.
Pakistan shared pictures on its twitter handle saying that India had only dropped ‘payload’ in open areas that destroyed nothing but pine trees. Infact, Reuters reported on Friday that Pakistan even plans to lodge a complaint against India at the United Nations, accusing it of “eco-terrorism” over air strikes that damaged their trees.
