Why did India choose to hit Pakistani terror camps after midnight?
CDS General Anil Chauhan disclosed why India struck Pakistani terror camps around 1-1:30am on May 7. "First, we had confidence in our capabilities that even at night we'd be able to get imagery. Second...reason was we wanted to avoid civilian casualties," he said. He added that best time would've been 5:30-6:00am, but at that time, the first azaan takes place.
