Modi Picture In Front Of S-400 System At Adampur Base, A Message To Pakistan

"Earlier this morning, I went to Air Force Station (AFS) Adampur and met our brave air warriors and soldiers. It was a very special experience to be with those who epitomise courage, determination and fearlessness," the Prime Minister said on X.

"India is eternally grateful to our armed forces for everything they do for our nation."

Officials said Mr Modi landed at Adampur (clearly the runway is just fine) at 6.15 am and was there for nearly an hour. The brief visit followed his address to the nation last night, in which he hailed India's soldiers for their bravery in the 100-hour missile-and-drone war against Pakistan.

Adampur was among the air force stations that Pakistan attempted to attack after India's "Operation Sindoor".

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday visited Punjab's Adampur air base and interacted with soldiers, days after India and Pakistan agreed to a ceasefire.

Adampur was among the air force stations that Pakistan attempted to attack on the intervening night of May 9 and 10 after India's "Operation Sindoor". Pakistan also claimed that its hypersonic missiles fired from JF-17 fighter jets destroyed India's S-400 air defence system in Adampur, a charge rejected by the Indian officials.

PM Modi also countered Pakistan's claim and shared a photograph that showed him making a salute with the S-400's missile stack in the background.

"Earlier this morning, I went to AFS Adampur and met our brave air warriors and soldiers. It was a very special experience to be with those who epitomise courage, determination and fearlessness. India is eternally grateful to our armed forces for everything they do for our nation," PM Modi posted on X, and shared pictures with them.

The Adampur base was one of several targeted by Pakistan on Friday and Saturday nights (i.e., May 9-10) in retaliation for Operation Sindoor, was India's military response to Pahalgam.

Pak forces also attacked bases in Udhampur in Jammu and Kashmir and other military installations across Rajasthan and Gujarat, as also civilian populations in Punjab's Ferozepur.

However, damage sustained was minimal, the Indian armed forces said.

India has also claimed attacks on schools and medical centres, which Pak has denied.

Pak, meanwhile,  made similar claims, which were rubbished by the Indian forces, who said their attacks had been 'calibrated' to only disable terrorist and rival military infrastructure.

India Proves Its Strikes On Pak

Meanwhile, satellite visuals have confirmed the potency of its attacks on Pak air bases; 11, including Nur Khan Air in Rawalpindi, less than 10km from Islamabad and adjacent to the Army's HQ, were hit.
