‘Impregnable Wall Of Fire': Indian Army Shares New Video Of Operation Sindoor
The video shared on X shows the destruction of Pakistani missiles by the Indian Army.
The Indian Army on Sunday shared a new video of Operation Sindoor– the retaliatory campaign launched earlier this month after the brutal terror attack in Pahalgam. The video posted by the Army's Western Command carried the caption: 'Enemy Missiles neutralised… #IndianArmy – impregnable wall of fire."
The video shared on X shows the destruction of Pakistani missiles by the Indian Army. The video highlighted the interception of Pakistani drones and Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle (UCAV) by the S-400 surface-to-air missile (SAM) system.
The Indian Army showcased a successful defence action in the video and wrote, 'Missed their targets by miles. Debris in agricultural farms." 'Ruthless Precision. Raw Power. Fierce Pride," they added.
Following a surge in tensions between India and Pakistan after India's airstrikes on nine terrorist targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), a ceasefire was brokered between the two nations on May 10.
India announced that trade with Pakistan would remain suspended, and the implementation of the Indus Water Treaty would also be put on hold. Earlier today, the Army said that the ceasefire understanding with Pakistan remains in place and that there is no expiry date to the 'continuation of a break in hostilities".
The strikes killed at least 10 family members of JeM chief Masood Azhar and four close aides.
The sites targeted were the Pakistani bases at Rafiqui (Shorkot, Jhang), Murid (Chakwal), Nur Khan (Chaklala, Rawalpindi) Rahim Yar Khan, Sukkur and Chunian (Kasur). In the strikes, the air bases in Skardu, Bholari, Jacobabad and Sargodha suffered extensive damage.

Baloch leader to Trump: You've been ‘gravely misled' by Munir, Balochistan's resources don't belong to Pakistan
Baloch leader Mir Yar Baloch has warned Trump that he was 'gravely misled' by Pakistan about the true location of vast natural resources, saying they belong to Balochistan, not Pakistan. read more Baloch leader Mir Yar Baloch has issued a sharp warning to US President Donald Trump, accusing him of being 'gravely misled' by Pakistan's military leadership about the true ownership of vast natural resources in the region. In an open letter, Mir Yar Baloch stated that General Asim Munir and Islamabad's diplomatic channels had falsely claimed that massive reserves of oil, natural gas, copper, lithium, uranium, and rare earth minerals were part of Pakistan, when in fact, he said, they rightfully belong to Balochistan. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'Your recognition of the vast oil and mineral reserves in the region is indeed accurate. However, with due respect, it is imperative to inform your administration that you have been gravely misled by the Pakistani military leadership, particularly General Asim Munir, and by their diplomatic channels regarding the true geography and ownership of these critical resources,' he wrote. He further asserted that these untapped deposits are not located in Punjab—the core territory of Pakistan—but in the 'Republic of Balochistan,' which he described as 'a historically sovereign nation currently under illegal occupation by Pakistan.' 'These untapped reserves of oil, natural gas, copper, lithium, uranium, and rare earth minerals are not located within the territories of Punjab, which is the actual Pakistan. They belong to the Republic of Balochistan, a historically sovereign nation currently under illegal occupation by Pakistan. The claim that these resources belong to Pakistan is not only false, it is a deliberate attempt to misappropriate Balochistan's wealth for political and financial gain,' Baloch added. He also warned that granting Pakistan access to Balochistan's mineral riches would empower its military and intelligence services—specifically the ISI—which he accused of a long record of sponsoring terrorist groups. 'Such access would significantly enhance the operational and financial capabilities of the ISI, enabling it to expand its global terror networks, recruit more militants, and potentially facilitate large-scale attacks reminiscent of 9/11,' he cautioned. Reaffirming Balochistan's stand, he declared the region was not 'for sale.' 'We will not permit Pakistan, China, or any other foreign power to exploit our land or its resources without the explicit consent of the Baloch people. Our sovereignty is non-negotiable, and our struggle for rightful ownership and independence continues with dignity and resilience,' he said in the letter. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The statement came after Trump announced a major energy partnership with Islamabad, under which the US and Pakistan would jointly develop what he described as 'their massive oil reserves.' 'We are in the process of choosing the Oil Company that will lead this Partnership,' Trump wrote on Truth Social. Meanwhile, Pakistan's largest refinery, Cnergyico, claimed to have finalised a deal with Vitol to import 1 million barrels of American oil, according to the company's vice chairman, Usama Qureshi, who spoke to Reuters.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi Makes Big 'Swadeshi' Pitch Amid Tariff Tests, Global Uncertainties
Curated By : Last Updated: August 03, 2025, 05:35 IST PM Modi addressing a rally in Varanasi. (Image: ANI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi passionately urged traders and shopkeepers nationwide on Friday to embrace 'Swadeshi" by committing to selling only 'Made in India" products. The appeal comes at a pivotal time, with the Prime Minister highlighting that 'the world is going through uncertainty". He emphasised that 'promoting made-in-India goods will be the truest service to the country", connecting economic choices directly to national pride and resilience. Delivering his plea during a public address in Varanasi, the Prime Minister's words mirror India's renewed focus on self-reliance, embodied in the Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan. This initiative aims to strengthen domestic manufacturing, reduce dependency on imports, and enhance India's economic stance amid a fluctuating global environment. His remarks also came in the wake of recent global economic shifts, including contentious tariff decisions by the US, underscoring the need for India to prioritise its economic interests as it strives to become the world's third-largest economy. Swipe Left For Next Video View all The Swadeshi concept has historical roots in India's freedom struggle, symbolising self-sufficiency and national empowerment. By urging traders to stock and promote locally made products, the government aims to boost local industries, create extensive employment opportunities, particularly for the youth, and ensure that wealth circulates within the Indian economy. The Prime Minister also encouraged citizens to be mindful consumers, urging them to consider the origins of their purchases. 'Whatever we buy, we should ask ourselves, has an Indian toiled to make this? If it has been made by the sweat of our people, with their skills, that product is Swadeshi for us. We must adopt the mantra of 'Vocal for Local'," he said. This initiative seeks to create a strong bond between consumers and domestic producers, turning buying decisions into acts of national service. Observers say that with the festive and wedding seasons approaching, this appeal is particularly timely, promoting greater support for locally produced goods.
