Hangar at Pakistan’s Bholari Airbase damaged in Indian strike during Operation Sindoor.


The Bholari airbase in Pakistan, targeted earlier this month by the Indian Air Force during Operation Sindoor, housed four Western fighter jets and a Saab 200 AEW&C (Airborne Early Warning and Control) aircraft at the time of the strike, top sources said.


Located less than 100 miles from the strategic port city of Karachi, the Bholari base was among nearly a dozen Pakistan Air Force installations struck by India in the operation. Sources revealed that a specific hangar at the Bholari base was hit by a long-range BrahMos missile, resulting in a small hole in the hangar’s rooftop and significant internal damage. The impact of the strike reportedly compromised key assets within the hangar.


In addition to the Bholari strike, Indian forces also destroyed four to five major air defence missile launchers and radar systems deployed in Pakistan’s Punjab province. The radars included both American- and Chinese-made systems, according to the sources.


The Indian Air Force is said to have used traps and decoys to evade detection and enhance the precision of its strikes, dealing a significant blow to the Pakistan Army’s air defence network. A technical assessment of the full extent of the damage inflicted during the operation is currently underway.
