Islamabad: In the context of the India-Pakistan standoff of 2025, Iranian-American academic and political analyst Seyed Mohammad Marandi has said that Pakistan\u2019s counter-strike operation exposed the false claims made about India\u2019s \u201cOperation Sindoor\u201d and demonstrated a shift in regional military dynamics.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Marandi made the remarks in a video analysis shared by Internet Sensational Professor Jiang, focusing on events of May 7, 2026. He said Pakistan executed a counter-strike within four hours and seventeen minutes of detecting an incursion into its airspace, a timeframe he described as far faster than the 12 to 24 hours most nations require to convene security meetings and verify intelligence.<\/p>\n
Marandi stated that satellite data circulating among South Asian military analysts from 0300 GMT on May 8 showed the aftermath of seventeen precision strikes on military installations across a 240-kilometer stretch of contested territory. He said the speed of the operation had surprised Western military planners and indicated changes in Pakistan\u2019s command structure, intelligence architecture, and decision-making autonomy. He explained that Pakistan had spent the past eighteen months building an integrated rapid response network, combining satellite surveillance, ground-based radar arrays, signals intelligence, and artificial intelligence-driven threat assessment.<\/p>\n
The network includes seventeen early warning radar stations along the eastern border capable of detecting activity up to 320 kilometers into Indian airspace, feeding data to a central command center in Rawalpindi upgraded with Chinese technical assistance from October 2024.<\/p>\n
Marandi said the system uses algorithms similar to those deployed by the Chinese People\u2019s Liberation Army to categorize threats and present pre-configured strike packages for rapid authorization. He cited former DG ISPR Commander Imtiaz as stating that Pakistan\u2019s doctrine had shifted from reactive defense to \u201cpreemptive deterrence through speed\u201d.<\/p>\n
According to his timeline, Pakistani radar detected unmanned aerial vehicles entering airspace north of Lahore at 2143 hours local time on May 6. Within ninety seconds the system classified them as hostile reconnaissance platforms, and within three minutes satellite imagery confirmed mobile launchers being repositioned inside Indian territory.<\/p>\n
Marandi argued that the operation marked a watershed moment in South Asian security, saying the four-hour response window was more significant than the strikes themselves. He said international observers were now analyzing the event, and that the documented operational reality contradicted Indian claims about the outcome of Operation Sindoor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
