Among those killed in the Indian missile strikes were the elder sister and her husband of JeM chief Maulana Masood Azhar, as well as his nephew and his wife

Terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed’s chief Masood Azhar has said 10 of his family members and four close associates were killed in a strike by the Indian armed forces under ‘Operation Sindoor’.

The operation involved targeted attacks on nine terror-linked sites across Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), including a key compound in Bahawalpur.

In a statement, Masood Azhar said the Indian strike on Bahawalpur’s Markaz Subhan Allah, the headquarters of the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) terror outfit, resulted in the deaths of 10 members of his family and four close associates.

He has also targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying, “Is zulm ne saaray zabtay tor diye hain. Ab koi reham ki umeed na rakhe,” which translates to: “This cruelty has broken all boundaries.  Now, no one should expect mercy.”

Among those killed, Azhar said, were his elder sister and her husband, his nephew and his wife, and a niece.
