India’s ‘Destroyed Runways’ Reply to Pakistan PM Resurfaces After Fresh UN Remarks

For India, Operation Sindoor demonstrated a shift toward a more decisive response to cross-border terrorism. The Indian government says the operation combined precision strikes, military coordination and strategic restraint while establishing that terrorist infrastructure and its sponsors could face direct consequences. India’s Key Message: New Delhi says Operation Sindoor established a “new normal”: India will respond to terrorist attacks on its own terms, will not accept nuclear coercion, and will hold both terrorists and those supporting them accountable. Fresh Evidence: Satellite imagery dated September 12, 2026, reviewed by NDTV showed repair activity continuing at PAF Base Mushaf in Sargodha, one of the Pakistani airbases struck by India during Operation Sindoor.

India continues to present Operation Sindoor as evidence of its expanding military capabilities, joint-force coordination and increasingly self-reliant defence ecosystem, while maintaining its stated policy of zero tolerance toward terrorism.
