Six Months After India’s Strikes, Satellite Images Show Pakistan Still Repairing Key Military Sites

Six months after Indian forces struck multiple military positions inside Pakistan during the May 2025 four-day conflict, new satellite imagery indicates Islamabad is still working to fix the damage, according to OSINT analyst Damien Symon, the researcher who first reported that India had targeted a nuclear weapons storage site at Kirana Hills during Operation Sindoor. Symon, who has been tracking post-strike activity, shared fresh visuals on X pointing to new construction at Rawalpindi’s Nur Khan Airbase—one of the sites hit during the confrontation. “Pakistan appears to have constructed a new facility at Nur Khan Airbase, at the location India targeted during its May 2025 conflict,” Symon posted on November 16.

The roof has been removed section by section, a process Symon says is likely linked to assessing the extent of structural damage before full restoration. “Imagery over the past few months reveals the hangar targeted by India at Jacobabad Airbase, Pakistan, during the May 2025 conflict, has had its roof taken apart in stages — likely as internal damage checks continue before the structure is repaired,” he wrote on November 15.

India launched Operation Sindoor in May 2025, a coordinated military campaign targeting key Pakistani military installations deep inside the country. The operation, planned and executed with high precision, involved long-range strikes on sites linked to Pakistan’s air power and strategic assets. The operation also included multiple strikes on critical airbases such as Rawalpindi’s Nur Khan Airbase and the Jacobabad Airbase in Sindh, causing significant damage to hangars and support infrastructure. India’s response came weeks after a deadly terrorist attack in Pahalgam, where 26 innocent lives were lost at the hands of Pakistan-backed terrorists.
