Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari revealed he was advised by his Military Secretary to take shelter in a bunker during India's Operation Sindoor in May. The operation was India's retaliatory strike following the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. Zardari stated he refused the advice, asserting leaders should face conflict on the battlefield rather than in bunkers. This admission highlights the perceived impact of India's precision strikes on Pakistani military installations and terror camps, despite Pakistan's efforts to downplay the operation.
