Panic in Pak: Indian Army wipes out 7 PoK terror camps, 50 terrorists

In a massive strike against Pakistan, the Indian Army carried out a large and effective anti-terror operation targeting 7 terror camps in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK) on Monday, according to top sources. As per inputs, over 50 terrorists have been killed in the military strike, leaving Pakistan in disarray.
