A day earlier, Islamabad Police organised a rally to commemorate the armed forces’ historic victory in repelling Indian aggression
Islamabad Police Inspector General Syed Ali Nasir Rizvi, addressing the participants, praised the armed forces for confronting the enemy “like an iron wall.” He described the victory as not only Pakistan’s success but a triumph for the entire Ummah.
Rawalpindi Commissioner Amir Khattak also spoke at the event, paying tribute to the armed forces, veterans, martyrs, and their families for their sacrifices in defence of the nation.
Counter-Terrorism Department SSP Hamza Humayon lauded the Pakistani people for their unwavering support for the military, saying the unity between the nation and its defenders had been clearly demonstrated.
The rally reflected widespread public sentiment following what officials have characterised as a decisive military response during Operation Bunyanum Marsoos.

Pakistan launched the military operation in response to Indian aggression on May 10, deploying its Al-Fatah missile system and targeting multiple Indian military installations. Key targets included BrahMos storage facilities at Beas and S-400 air defence systems at Adampur and Bhuj.
Moreover, the Pakistan Air Force shot down five Indian jets, including French Rafale, and carried out strikes on several Indian airbases.
Following these developments, India requested intervention from US President Donald Trump, which ultimately led to a ceasefire agreement between the two nuclear-armed neighbours.
