A top commander of the Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) has confirmed that the Indian missile strikes on May 7 took a significant toll on the family of the terror outfit's chief, Masood Azhar. The attack targeted the group's stronghold in Bahawalpur, Pakistan.

The JeM commander, Ilyas Kashmiri, expressed his anger in a widely circulated video, revealing that India's response had left Azhar's family 'torn into pieces.' The revelation marks a sharp escalation in the conflict between India and Pakistan, following a deadly terrorist assault in Jammu and Kashmir.
