DG ISPR Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry says the Pakistan Army has delivered its promises made to the nation.
In a press conference, he said: “Today we shall apprise you of the conduct and conclusion of Operation Bunyan-um-Marsoos, the dastardly attacks that began on night of May 6 and 7 2025, resulting in the loss of innocent civilian lives including women, children and elderly.”
“Pakistan had vowed justice and retribution for the reprehensible Indian military aggression and brutal killing of our civilians.”

Addressing the presser, the ISPR DG said the Pakistan armed forces expressed profound appreciation for the brave Pakistani nation, whose moral strength, unshakeable resolve, and wholehearted support and prayers served as a force multiplier during these testing times.
Special Acknowledgment to Youth
Special acknowledgment was given to the youth of Pakistan, who played a crucial role as frontline cyber warriors, defending the nation’s narrative in the digital space. The armed forces also thanked the vibrant Pakistani media for standing firm against India’s information warfare and war-mongering.
The military also expressed deep gratitude to the political leadership of all parties "without any distinction", for demonstrating unified resolve and unwavering support for the armed forces and the defence of Pakistan’s sovereignty.
Use of Precision-Guided Long-Range Missiles
Lt Gen Chaudhry said that Pakistani armed forces’ retaliatory action against Indian aggression was a "textbook demonstration" of tri-services jointness and operational excellence. "Pakistan’s response was enabled by real-time situational awareness, advanced network-centric warfare capabilities, and seamless multi-domain operations across air, land, sea, and cyberspace," he said.
The DG said the synergy among all platforms allowed for precision engagements, overwhelming lethality, and rapid tempo operations. "Precision-guided long-range missiles — Fateh-1 and Fateh-2 — were employed by the Pakistan Army, while the Pakistan Air Force utilised highly capable long-range munitions and precision-guided weaponry. Long-range artillery units also contributed significantly to the strike package," he added.
Who requested ceasefire?
Answering a question during the press conference, DG ISPR refuted Indian military’s claims that Pakistan requested for ceasefire. "Let me put it on record that Pakistan never requested for a ceasefire," he said. He said that Pakistan accepted India's ceasefire request on the mediation of some world powers.
Pakistan Navy's Role In Stopping India
Vice Admiral Rab Nawaz said the Pakistan Navy safeguarded the country’s maritime boundaries by keeping an Indian warship, positioned 400 nautical miles away, from advancing toward Pakistani waters. Addressing a joint press conference alongside DG ISPR Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry and PAF Air Vice Marshal Tariq Mehmood, the vice admiral said that the enemy refrained from further movement after observing the Navy’s state of readiness.
Cyber Offensives Against India
Under the Operation Bunyan-um-Marsoos, Pakistan Armed Forces also carried out comprehensive and effective cyber offensives, temporarily crippling and degrading critical Indian military infrastructure and services, the DG ISPR said. "These cyber strikes targeted systems directly supporting Indian military operations and were designed to disrupt their warfighting capabilities without affecting civilian platforms," he added.
No Indian Pilot in Pakistani Custody
Responding to a question, Lt Gen Chaudhry said that no Indian pilot was in Pakistan Army's custody following military clashes. "I can confirm you that we do not have any pilot in custody… this is all social media chatter, this is all part of multiple sources of fake news and propaganda," he said.
Military Installations Targeted at 26 Locations
Lt Gen Chaudhry said that Pakistan targeted 26 locations inside India in response to the Indian aggression. He said that Pakistan targeted military installations in Suratgarh, Sirsa, Poonch, Adampur, Barnala, Awantipura, Srinagar, Udhampur and Pathankot. He said that S-400 missile system was targeted at two places and destroyed a radar station in Poonch. He said that Pakistan taught India that drones have no role in the modern warfare. He said that all Indian drones were downed through the GPS jamming system.
Peace in Pakistan, India Depends on Kashmir
The ISPR DG said that a durable peace in the two countries is not possible until the issue of Kashmir is resolved. He said that Kasmir is India’s external matter, but it uses this dispute to fix its internal matters. He said that India wants to change Kashmir’s status and demography. He said that Kashmiri people’s houses were demolished after the Pahalgam terrorist attack. He said the Kashmir issue should be resolved in line with wishes of the people of Kashmir. He said the Pakistan Army was not doing any Line of Control violations.
