The video comes after Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) commander Masood Ilyas Kashmiri admitted the destruction of the Markaz Subhan Allah headquarters in Bahawalpur during Operation Sindoor in a recent video. Kashmiri admitted that the family of the terror group's chief, Masood Azhar, was "torn into pieces" in the attack. He also claimed that it was the Pakistan Army and its chief, Asim Munir, that had "sent generals to funerals" of the terrorists killed in Operation Sindoor.
Counter-terrorism
Operation Sindoor targeted terror camps in Pakistan
Another video shows Saifullah Kasuri, the deputy chief of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), making bold assertions regarding Pakistan's backing for the terrorist outfit. In the video, Kasuri was heard saying that the Pakistani government and army had provided funds to rebuild the terrorist group's headquarters. Operation Sindoor was launched in retaliation to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, which killed 26 people. The operation targeted key strongholds of JeM and LeT, marking one of India's most significant counter-terror operations in recent years.
Training center
Markaz Taiba was LeT's main training camp
The back-to-back admissions by terror group commanders support India's claim that nine sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir were targeted during the May 7 military operation. Established in 2000, the Markaz Taiba complex was LeT's primary training center. It conducted arms drills, physical training, and radicalization sessions for recruits from Pakistan and abroad. The camp has been linked to several terror plots. The Markaz Subhan Allah facility in Bahawalpur is linked to the Pulwama attack of February 14, 2019.
