A recent report by India’s National Radiological Safety Division has confirmed the destruction of a BrahMos missile depot in Indian Punjab. This confirmation supports Pakistan’s earlier claims about the incident.
The report reveals that a radiation alert was issued in the area following the depot’s destruction. It described the situation as a serious safety threat. Radiation fears led authorities to act swiftly.
Evacuation orders were issued for people living within a three-kilometer radius of the BrahMos missile depot. Residents within five kilometers were told to close all doors and windows. These precautions were aimed at minimizing exposure to radioactive material.
The depot was reportedly hit during a Pakistani missile strike on May 10. This strike resulted in the damage that triggered the radiological emergency. The confirmation by an Indian agency is now being seen as strong evidence backing Islamabad’s version of the event.
Concerns have grown over environmental pollution and public health risks caused by the incident. The radiological threat has stirred anxiety in the affected region.
Pakistan had claimed earlier that it struck a sensitive Indian military facility. Now, with the Indian authority’s findings, its claim about the BrahMos missile depot damage has gained credibility.
Despite the serious nature of the findings, Indian authorities have not yet released an official public statement. There has been no word on the extent of the radiation leak or the current condition of the area.
The BrahMos missile depot is a highly strategic facility. Damage to such an installation during conflict signals a grave escalation. The report’s silence from Indian leadership only deepens the mystery.
So far, the Indian government has neither denied nor clarified the report’s contents. The international community is also watching closely due to the potential dangers of such radioactive incidents.
The BrahMos missile depot issue now raises fresh questions about nuclear safety, crisis management, and the real cost of military confrontations.
