Overview
- A circulating interview clip shows Captain Muneeb Zamal claiming Fatah-1 missiles hit “Rajouri Airbase” and “Mamun Airbase.”
- Reporters found no Indian Air Force base in Rajouri and identified Mamun as a cantonment near Pathankot, not an airbase.
- Social media users ridiculed the claim, and the officer also said nearby civilians during a launch served as a confidence boost for personnel.
- The remarks trace back to Pakistan’s Operation Bunyan Ul Marsoos on May 10, 2025, when Islamabad fired Fatah-1 rockets during cross-border strikes.
- India reported intercepting a Fatah-1 over Sirsa, and debris tied to the 2025 attacks was later recovered in Sirsa, Barmer, Jalandhar, and Srinagar’s Dal Lake.
