Pakistan announced a military operation against India early Saturday, claiming to have struck a BrahMos storage site and airfields, retaliating for alleged Indian missile strikes on Pakistani air bases. Pakistan stated its air defenses intercepted most Indian missiles. This escalates the conflict that began Wednesday after India's strikes on what it called "terrorist infrastructure." Pakistan named its operation "Bunyanun Marsoos" and said it avoided civilian targets. A meeting of Pakistan's National Command Authority was called. Explosions were reported in Srinagar and Jammu, India. Pakistan claimed India targeted three of its air bases. The fighting follows India's claim that its initial strikes were retaliation for a tourist attack in Kashmir. The G7 has urged de-escalation and dialogue. Unverified reports suggest at least 48 deaths since Wednesday.
