There were lots of claims from both sides but nothing definite. Indian officials were tight lipped and issued only terse statements , while Pakistanis released one statement after another. Media reports from both sides were as usual quite trashy and more noise than substance. In all this noise, there were some recordings, witness statements and less publicised events which provide some hints about what actually&nbsp;happened. There is some new information&nbsp;&nbsp;coming out almost every day and it&#8217;s a difficult task to do detailed fact checks and connect all the dots. Following is an attempt to find some answers based upon some of the facts which are seemingly true.&nbsp;&nbsp;This part covers just the Balakot strikes on 26th Feb. If I have some time, I&#8217;ll write something about events of next day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong> 26th Feb. 2:55 am&nbsp;<\/strong> : A Indian Air Force&nbsp;strike team consisting solely of&nbsp; Mirage 2000 fighter jets attacked a JeM terrorist training camp in Balakot in Khyber Phaktunwa province across international border. There were reports of 2 other targets, Chakoti and Muzaffarabad in Pakistan being hit, but no confirmations from either side. But both sides are in agreement that Balakot was bombed. &nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> India announced the attacks later in the day via an official statement made by Vijay Gokhale, Secretary, Ministry of External Affairs   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Press briefing by Vijay Gokhale, Secretary, Ministry of External Affairs\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/DTA3jlTWSWQ?start=1&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Pakistani Claims: <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Pakistanis on the other hand made a number of mutually contradictory claims. <\/p>\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>&#8220;Pakistani National Security Committee strongly rejected Indian claim of targeting an alleged terrorist camp near Balakot and the claim of heavy casualties. Once again Indian government has resorted to a self-serving, reckless and fictitious claim,&#8221; 1* 2*<\/li>\n<li>Pakistan foreign minister Qureshi said \u201cmulti-dimensional intrusion\u201d had been attempted by the Indian fighter jets early on Tuesday. \u201cBut the intervention by Pakistani jets forced them to return back within minutes,\u201d he said. The minister dismissed the notion that Pakistan Air Force jets were late in responding to the Indian attack, saying the planes were \u201cready\u201d and \u201cair-borne\u201d. 2*<\/li>\n<li>Director-general of Pakistan\u2019s Inter Services Public Relations, Maj. Gen. Asif Ghafoor, said India had \u201cattempted\u201d to send its combat air patrols (CAPs) \u201cfirst from the Lahore-Sialkot sector\u201d and they were \u201cchallenged\u201d by Pakistani CAP. \u201cThey tried to enter from Bahawalpur-Okara and were forced to go back,\u201d he said. According to Ghafoor, \u201cthe third (Indian) CAP which was bigger in number made it from Muzaffarabad and they were challenged and were forced to return\u201d. 2*<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Payload of hastily escaping Indian aircrafts fell in open. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8drYtNGMsm\">pic.twitter.com\/8drYtNGMsm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor (@OfficialDGISPR) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OfficialDGISPR\/status\/1100231826348617728?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 26, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script> Pakistani Army confirmed attack on Twitter with pictures of craters outside the terrorist training facility.

It shows a senior Pakistani army officer in a village meeting consoling family members of some (200) dead people. Some roughly translated lines below:<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0WJG5990ds0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Whoever fights alongside rulers of land in name of jihad is fighting for jihad. <\/p><p><strong>Yesterday 200 people died<\/strong>.

Indian government and armed forces have release very little information till now. Maybe it&#8217;ll change later as it did with Uri strikes. But as of now, one major statement made is that Indian intelligence had detected around 300 mobile phone signals in the terrorist camp. 4*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Following interview with some locals deflate official Pakistani claims<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>a. Access to whole area has been completely blocked off for outsiders as well as locals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>b. Pakistani authorities are prohibiting any information leaks. For this, they&#8217;ve blocked internet, enforced no go zones and are actively warning people against talking to anyone.<\/p>\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3xtXnS9Fw6g\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jAIWbb0XjjU?start=300\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4.

Other two possible targets were Chakoti and Muzaffarabad. Both are near to LoC in J&amp;K <\/li><li>Earlier reports said that terrorist camp was hit using &#8220;1000 kg bombs&#8221;.  Later it was revealed to be Spice, which is actually a guidance kit for 2000, 1000 and 500 pound bombs in Indian inventory. I believe that it was Spice 1000 used for 1000 lbs (450 kg) bombs which can have 200 kgs of high explosives.  A single 1000 kg bomb will have around 450 kgs of explosives which will blow off most of hill top. Considering that avoiding collateral damage was one major mission objective, it&#8217;s unlikely that 1000 kg bombs were used.  <\/li><li> According to local witness accounts, 4-5 bombs were dropped.  It should be pretty obvious that these smart bombs usually don&#8217;t miss. Even if we believe story of that single injured civilian whose house was damaged, there are still 3-4 other bombs which found their mark. Their impact points have not been made public by Pakistan and access blocked off.<\/li><li>There have been atleast 200 causalities including some terrorists, their trainers as well as regular Pakistani army. Pakistan is doing everything in it&#8217;s power to hide it.  We&#8217;ll have to wait for more information to be released by Indian government to have a reasonably accurate number and actual impact.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">References:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>1. https:\/\/www.news18.com\/news\/world\/pakistan-vows-to-respond-to-indian-air-strikes-at-time-and-place-of-its-choosing-2049355.html<\/li><li>2. https:\/\/www.telegraphindia.com\/india\/damage-come-and-see-it-says-pakistan\/cid\/1685821<\/li><li>3. https:\/\/www.indiatoday.in\/world\/story\/jaish-e-mohammed-camp-balakot-pakistan-blocks-media-1473243-2019-03-08<\/li><li>4. http:\/\/www.newindianexpress.com\/nation\/2019\/mar\/04\/ntro-surveillance-of-balakot-jem-camp-before-strikes-confirmed-300-active-targets-1946650.html<\/li><li><\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s been a lot of noise about what happened in Balakot on 26th Feb 2019 and on LoC on 27th Feb.
