What is a surgical strike?
A surgical strike is an attack using missiles, bombers or on the ground against certain specific targets. The strike is planned with surgical precision so they cause damage only to the planned targets and cause minimum damage to their surroundings. These attacks are usually carried out against terrorist camps, training grounds, or facilities such as power stations, armouries, etc. The strikes are without any warning and are carried out at dawn with an element of surprise.
