India and large Pakistan spoke, but satellite images show limited damage

The four -day military clash between India and Pakistan was the most expansionist fighting in half a century between the two nuclear armed countries. Since both sides used drones and missiles to test the air defenses for each other and hit the military facilities, they claimed that they were severely damaged.

But satellite images indicate that although the attacks were widely spread, the damage was much more than that of the claim – and India mostly appeared on Pakistani facilities. In a new era of the super -technology war, the strikes of both sides seemed to have been accurately targeted.

What is increasingly evident is that both sides suffered losses between their armed forces, as India recognized the loss of five soldiers and the reports of Pakistan 11. It seems that the heaviest blow to India is the loss of planes. While the Indian government did not say the number, officials and diplomats say at least two planes were lost, and more likely.

When India appears to have a clear advantage in targeting Pakistani military facilities and airports, as the last extension of the fighting turned from symbolic strikes and force offers for attacks on the capabilities of defending each other.

High -resolution satellite images, before and after strikes, show clear damage to Pakistan facilities through Indian attacks, if they are limited and accurate by nature.

In Bholari Air Base, less than 100 miles from the Pakistani city of Karachi, India’s defense officials said they had hit the fold of aircraft with an accurate attack. The views showed clear damage to the barn.

The Indian army said that it has particularly targeted the corridors and other facilities in some major air bases in Pakistan. Satellite pictures showed damage. On May 10, Pakistan issued a notification of the Raheim Yar Khan air base, saying that the runway was not working.

The Pakistani army included two Indian military facilities and the bases that said their forces had targeted. While Indian officials admitted “limited damage” in four air bases, they provided few details.

Satellite images of sites that Pakistan claimed to be limited, and so far the damage caused by Pakistani strikes does not appear even in the rules that were evidence installed on some military measures.

Pakistani officials said, according to the government media, that their forces “destroyed” the UdHampur Air Force Base in India. The family of an Indian soldier confirmed his death on the base. But a picture of May 12 does not show harm.
