ISLAMABAD (Kashmir English): Air Chief Marshal Zaheer Ahmed Sidhu, while describing the historic victory in the Marka-e-Haq as a masterpiece of the professionalism of the Pakistan Air Force, has said that the Pakistan Air Force is ready at all levels and, in case of any aggression, the defense of the country will be ensured at all costs.
A grand ceremony was organized at the Air Headquarters, Islamabad, to pay tribute to the officers and men of the Pakistan Air Force on the completion of one year of the grand victory in the Battle of Haq.
Addressing the ceremony, Air Chief Marshal Zaheer Ahmed Sidhu highlighted the importance of this historic day and offered heartfelt congratulations to the air force and youth who showed exceptional performance in the Battle of Haq. He said that this day will be remembered in our history as a symbol of determination and courage.
In his address, the Air Chief recalled past incidents and said that after the Pahalgam false flag operation, India had shown traditional stubbornness and leveled baseless allegations against Pakistan.
Pakistan, as a responsible state, had offered India an impartial investigation into these incidents so that peace could be maintained in the region; however, the enemy’s aggressive intentions provoked it to take an adventure, which made it inevitable to respond.
Describing the details of the Pakistan Air Force operations, the Air Chief Marshal revealed that the Pakistan Air Force’s falcons had targeted all the enemy’s military targets.
He said that the Pakistan Air Force gave such a befitting reply to the enemy’s aggression that India’s pride was crushed to dust. During the operation, the state-of-the-art S-400 air defense system was destroyed in a matter of moments, paralyzing the enemy’s defense capability. In the Battle of Haq, Pakistan demonstrated its best drone capabilities and also defeated the enemy in aerial, electronic, and cyber warfare.
The Air Chief said that the role of the Pakistan Air Force in national defense has always been historic, but the Battle of Haq has taken it to new heights. From Srinagar to Bathinda, the Pakistan Air Force taught the enemy a lesson that it will never forget.
Pakistan’s ‘Cyber Shaheds’ destroyed the enemy’s cyber security system, while the Indian Air Force faced global humiliation. The Pakistan Air Force proved its superiority by destroying the world’s top fighter jets in the air.
Air Chief Marshal Zaheer Ahmed Sidhu further said that Pakistan Air Force has not only made its defense strategy more effective but has also completed its defense and operational readiness in various strategic areas in record time.
He emphasized at the end of his address that ‘Battle of Haq’ is a shining example of Pakistan Air Force’s professionalism, high morale and unwavering determination, which will always be written in golden words in Pakistan’s military history and will prove to be a beacon of light for the coming generations.
