India-Pakistan tensions: India’s Directorate General of Military Operations (DGMO) in a press conference on Sunday, May 11, said that Pakistan did not stop its passenger and civilian aircraft while launching its military drone attack against India. The meeting started to discuss the Operation Sindoor in detail at 6:30 p.m. (IST).
According to the Air Marshal’s address, the DGMO disclosed that the Pakistani drone attacks on May 8, 2025, originated from somewhere close to Lahore, Pakistan’s capital city.
Not just Pakistani airliners, but also international aircraft operators were given permission to fly out of the nation.
“I would like to bring out another aspect, what we found that while the drone attacks were being launched from somewhere close to Lahore, the enemy had allowed his civilian aircraft to continue to fly out of Lahore. Not only his own aircraft but also international passenger aircraft,” said Air Marshal AK Bharti in the media briefing.
The DGMO called this act “quite insensitive” from Pakistan’s part. In response to this move, Indian Air Force used extreme caution to make sure that no commercial airliner is harmed in between the clash of the two neighbouring nations.
“Which is quite insensitive, and we had to exercise extreme caution, even at the cost of some tactical disadvantage, to ensure there is no damage to any of the civilian aircraft,” said Air Marshal Bharti in his media address.
