At least 11 soldiers were martyred and 78 were wounded while defending Pakistan against India’s “unprovoked and reprehensible dastardly attacks”, the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) said. Meanwhile, 40 civilians — including seven women and 15 children — were killed in the Indian aggression and 121 others sustained injuries.

According to a statement issued by the military, the martyrs from the Pakistan Army include Naik Abdul Rehman, Lance Naik Dilawar Khan, Lance Naik Ikramullah, Naik Waqar Khalid, Sepoy Muhammad Adeel Akbar and Sepoy Nisar.

The martyrs from the Pakistan Air Force include Squadron Leader Usman Yousuf, Chief Technician Aurangzeb, Senior Technician Najeeb, Corporal Technician Farooq, and Senior Technician Mubashir.

“Their noble sacrifice of martyrs is an enduring symbol of courage, devotion, and unwavering patriotism — etched forever in the nation’s memory,” the statement said. “Let there be no ambiguity: any attempt to challenge Pakistan’s sovereignty or territorial integrity, ever again, shall be met with a swift, full-spectrum, and decisive response.”
