He claimed that the men entered the army camp, wiped out soldiers in 10 camps and returned safe, without even a scratch. This is a surgical strike.
Amid cheers, he said the attack was in retaliation to the surgical strike by Indian Army in PoK targeting terror launchpads.
"Modi talked about a surgical strike. I had replied to him saying, Nawaz Sharif won't be the one replying to you, I will. He won't accept anyone's reply except mine" the dreaded terrorist is heard mocking the Indian Prime minister.

Saeed went on to say that the "Indian surgical strike in PoK was to fool the world, with a fake film".
“But you gave an opportunity and the mujahideen will tell you what is a surgical strike" he continued. Saeed, wanted in India for a number of terror attacks in the country enjoys a free run in Pakistan, where he is given political patronage for his actions in Kashmir. Even amid international demand and recent outbursts by members of the ruling party themselves, Pakistan government and Army continues to safeguard him.
