6 September 1965 is the most important day in our military history. It commemorates the days of the September War when the armed forces of Pakistan and the entire nation defended their freedom and national dignity against Indian aggression.

On that day, brave Pakistani citizens showed unprecedented solidarity with their armed forces and this war was a common cause of Pakistani and armed forces that will continue to serve as a beacon for generations to come. On 6 September 1965, India suddenly attacked Pakistan. It was intended That he will have his breakfast in the gymkhana of Lahore. In fact, September 6 marks a milestone in our national history. Commemorating the 6th of September, when Hamar Az-Bin begins to relive this historic battle, we see how our cowardly, insidious and loyal enemy attacked our beloved country in the dark of night, showing his traditional cowardice. was On this occasion, our ailing nation showed an unprecedented display of national unity and destroyed the evil ambitions of the enemy. When the Indian political leadership saw Shamir getting out of hand, in order to eliminate the river from its army, without declaring war, it crossed the Pakistani international border on the southern front of Shamir and attacked Lahore with full force.

The Indian plan included to have the breakfast in Lahore and drinking at the Gymkhana Club. When the attack took place, the Pakistani Army and Rangers started fighting with the enemies with great courage and bravery. Army soldiers and officers stopped the enemy's steps by sacrificing their lives. While marching towards B.T road Lahore the position of the Indian 15 Division in front of Batapur  is a part of history. Pakistan Air Force immediately launched an attack on the enemy's vehicles and soldiers.

They ran away leaving their dead bodies and start cars on B.T Road. The PAF attacked so fiercely that they were not able to find a way to leave the dock and reach any shelter. At the same time, the Pakistani army took control of itself and launched a counter-attack at such lightning speed that the Indian army was easily defeated. In the battle of Lahore, the Indian army tried to cross the canal by putting pressure on the important point of Berki, but Major Aziz Bhatti Nishan e Haider's men. Surrounded them in the flames of gunpowder. Major Aziz Bhatti was fighting relentlessly until he was martyred by a tank shell.

The plan of Indian Corps was to attack 15 Division, Amritsar, Wagah La Hortur via GT Road and capture Lahore preliminarily by evening. 07 Division will reach Lahore by walking on Hor Ullah Barki Road, similarly 04 Mountain Division will also advance on Khem Karan Pankash Road and reach Lahore. A bullock cart, which was coming loaded with fodder, was untied and followed by a gun carriage, and as soon as the Indian Sherman tank reached the oil, it was captured and set ablaze.

This also blocked the way and oil was also saved till the end of the war. In the same way, the Indian army acted on Kasur, while the soldiers of the Pakistan army broke the back of the enemy while fighting with men. Meanwhile, the Pakistan Air Force, playing a historic role, set a new tone in the two-day war in the airspace of Lahore. On September 6, the Pakistani ship was in the air of Kasur Lahore for routine maintenance when at 42:50 they caught sight of the Army, which was seen moving towards the sea.

They alerted Lahore and Sargodha as well and fell upon the enemy's tanks and army as their punishment. Destroyed five warships. Within a few minutes, the enemy's convoy had turned into a pile of dust. The Indian Major General of 15 Division left his jeep and fur in the fields of Gaya. The enemy was so dismayed by the attack by the Pakistan Army and Air Force that it refused to advance its troops in front of its Corps Commander. India, Akhnu to Chhamb, Gujrat, Ferozepur Gundasingh, Lahore, Amritsar, Batapur Lahore, Amritsar, Khar La Barki and Lahore routes and the dream of invading and occupying Lahore turned into a nightmare. Meanwhile, in the Sialkot sector, India used tanks after the Second World War attacked. He had dreamed of capturing Wazirabad and Gujranwala, but in Chondah, Pakistani troops with an armed brigade foiled an attack by hundreds of tanks. On the first day of the deployment of dozens of tanks, Pakistan was in a better condition. In this area, India continued to attack apart from them before the end of the war but failed. As far as Pakistan Navy is concerned, it had already won its war.

Pakistan's only submarine, Ghazi, created such terror in the waters of Bombay harbor that the whole of India did not leave its shelter for fear of submarines throughout the war, as the first attack destroyed its operational communications capability. In the context of the September War, we cannot ignore the importance of resolving the Kashmir issue. Kashmir dispute is the only reason for deterioration of relations between Pakistan and India and continuous tension in the region. Pakistan Army Rangers, Pakistan Air Force and Pakistani people sacrificed their lives to defend their country Pakistan. The nation of Pakistan will always remember the bravery and courage of these martyrs. India, which sees Pakistan as an obstacle to its expansionist ambitions, will never succeed in eliminating it.
