Failed Attack: Villagers Near Balakot Say Indian Warplanes Missed Jaish-Run Madrasa By A Kilometre

[Lincoln]

Can Balakot, kpk be reached and bombed by fighters and make a return within 3/4 minutes?

Yes. Jets can reach Balakot within 1.5 minutes from Tangdhar. That's just the 'reaching' part, you don't have to be all the way on top of Balakot to drop missiles at a trajectory, just at a suitable range with a suitable speed.

Not enough. Pakistanis want blood of bharti terrorists by Pakistan military.

That,s not necessary bro.Let the embarrassment in india do its job That,s should be more than enough to kill them without a single drop of blood.
First they tried to isolate us diplomatically but failed ,later they try to ban us in sports federations and ended up themselves getting banned and finally in desperation they crossed the LOC at mid night failed to hit the target and while running away martyred some trees

From what villagers could see, the Indian attack had missed its target as the bombs dropped exploded about a kilometre away from the madrasa.

BALAKOT, Pakistan — Villagers near the town of Balakot in northeast Pakistanwere shaken out of their sleep by what seemed like an earthquake in the early hours of Tuesday, only discovering once dawn broke that there had been an Indian airstrike on their neighbourhood.

Indian officials said the raid destroyed a training camp of Jaish-e-Mohammed, the militant group behind a suicide attack in Indian-controlled Kashmir that killed 40 members of a paramilitary police force on Feb. 14. India’s foreign secretary said “a very large number of JEM terrorists” had been eliminated in what was the first Indian air strike on Pakistani territory since 1971.

The villagers, however, said only one person was wounded in the attack and they knew of no fatalities.

A resident, who did not want to give his name, said there was a nearby madrasa run by Jaish, though most villagers were guarded talking about their militant neighbours.

“There is this madrasa on the hilltop. The Jaish-e-Mohammed runs it,” he said.

Another person, who also declined to give his name, said the militants had had a presence in the area for years.

“I belong to that area. I know for sure that there has been a training camp. It used to be there. I know Jaish people ran it,” he said.

“This camp was turned into a madrasa several years ago, but no one would still be allowed to get close to this infrastructure. There are scores of students in the madrasa at any given time,” he said.

Set in a wooded, hilly area in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on the way to the scenic Kaghan valley, some 40 kilometres from the de facto border with India, Balakot was of many towns that was devastated by a massive earthquake in 2005.

From what villagers could see, the Indian attack had missed its target as the bombs dropped exploded about a kilometre away from the madrasa.

Mohammad Ajmal, a 25 year-old villager near Jaba Top, where the attack took place, said he had heard four loud bangs in succession just before 3.00 am (2200 GMT).

“We couldn’t tell what had happened. It was only in the morning that we figured out it was an attack,” he told Reuters after visiting the site, in a wooded hilltop area.

“We saw fallen trees and one damaged house, and four craters where the bombs had fallen.”

Fida Hussain Shah, a 46 year-old farmer, said he and other villagers had found pieces of Indian ordnance that had splintered pine trees on the hill but the only casualty was a man sleeping in his house when shrapnel broke the windows.

They are civilians. Just because it is run by msa it doesn't mean they are militants planning attacks on India.

All Pakistanis know that.

I'm sorry but I disagree. Intrusion is intrusion, regardless of they acheived their target or not. Most Pakistanis now only want blood of bharti terrorists.
