Pakistan Air Force Officer and 4 Airmen Killed in Indian Strike on Bholari Air Base

The Government of India has reiterated that all actions were taken in national self-defence and in accordance with international norms.

In response to multiple hostile provocations from Pakistan, including drone incursions, cross-border shelling, and support to terror networks across the LoC, the Indian Armed Forces executed a precision drone strike on May 10, 2025, targeting Pakistan’s Bholari Air Base in Sindh.

According to Indian military sources, the strike was part of a coordinated operation aimed at neutralizing high-value military assets and infrastructure used for launching or coordinating hostile actions against India. The operation, executed by combat drones under Operation Sindoor-II, was designed to degrade Pakistan’s offensive capabilities without causing civilian casualties.

The Indian side has confirmed that the strike caused significant structural damage to strategic hangars and operational control facilities at Bholari, believed to house advanced radar and surveillance systems. The action followed earlier strikes on Kamra, Sargodha, and Jacobabad airbases as part of India’s multi-pronged deterrence effort.

While Pakistan has reported the death of Squadron Leader Usman Yousaf and four other PAF personnel, Indian officials have neither confirmed nor denied individual identities of those killed, emphasizing that all targets were military in nature. Some Indian intelligence reports suggest the officer’s name might be Usman Malik, but verification remains pending due to lack of independent access to the site.

This strike came just hours before Pakistan’s desperate call for a ceasefire, highlighting the effectiveness and strategic impact of India’s calibrated military pressure. While India remains committed to peace, it has made it clear that any future aggression will meet with firm and proportionate retaliation.
