India's Air Force conducted a precision strike on May 10, targeting 11 military airbases in Pakistan, reportedly damaging 20% of its air force infrastructure and resulting in over 50 fatalities, including Squadron Leader Usman Yusuf. According to top government sources, the attacks focused on key installations including Bholari and Sargodha, where F-16 and JF-17 fighter jets are stationed. In comments to the media, Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated that this strike marks a significant milestone, making India the first nation to attack the airbases of a nuclear-armed country in a single operation. Official reports indicate that the operation inflicted heavy casualties at Bholari airbase and led to the destruction of several fighter jets. The operation followed an earlier strike on May 7, dubbed Operation Sindoor, which reportedly killed over 100 terrorists in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Satellite imagery has shown the extent of the damage at various airbases, including Shahbaz and Noor Khan. The use of kamikaze drones in the operation was noted as a crucial element in neutralizing Pakistan's air defense capabilities.

A video surfaced on social media in which a man, identified as a Bangladeshi Islamist, openly threatened to launch Taliban-style attacks in Kolkata, India, including potential suicide bombings against Hindus. In the footage, which was shared by the 'Voice of Bangladeshi Hindus' on May 12, 2025, the individual made derogatory remarks about Hindus, expressing confidence in executing such a plan if given the backing of the Bangladeshi military. The speaker claimed, “If the Bangladesh army gives me permission, here’s what I will do – I’ll send the most suicide bombers to Kolkata,” further elaborating on his intent to intimidate and attack Hindu communities. The video has raised alarms, particularly amid rising tensions between India and Pakistan following a recent terror attack in Pahalgam that killed 26 tourists. The Indian military recently conducted 'Operation Sindoor', targeting terror groups in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir, escalating existing geopolitical anxieties, according to the Indian Directorate General of Military Operations.
