A ceremony to mark one year since Pakistan’s victory in last year’s conflict with India is underway at General Headquarters (GHQ) in Rawalpindi.
The conflict with India — starting from the April 22 Pahalgam attack to the end of Operation Bunyanum Marsoos with a ceasefire between the two countries on May 10 — has been called “Marka-i-Haq” (Battle of Truth) by the state.
Chief of Defence Staff and Chief of the Army Staff Field Marshal Asim Munir is the chief guest at the event, with Chief of the Air Staff Air Chief Marshal (ACM) Zaheer Ahmed Babar Sidhu and Chief of the Naval Staff Admiral Naveed Ashraf also in attendance.
ACM Sidhu and Admiral Ashraf took turns to lay floral wreaths at the Yadgar-i-Shuhada (Martyrs’ Monument).
