Was Skardu airbase next after Sargodha? Ex-CDS reveals why India switched targets
Former Chief of Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan has shed light on why India's Operation Sindoor considered Skardu airbase as a potential target after striking Sargodha. According to Chauhan, the target list included Skardu, but the plan was altered due to "bad weather" conditions over the area. The operation, which targeted nine major terror infrastructure sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, resulted in the death of over 100 terrorists.
During the operation, Indian forces also struck Pakistan's Sargodha airbase. Chauhan clarified that Indian forces did not target Kirana Hills, an area believed to be linked to a nuclear facility, refuting recent claims.
