# ISI shifts JeM, LeT, Hizbul to multi-camp strategy after Operation Sindoor 2026-11-07T10:17:09+00:00 | World & Diplomacy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 4 independent outlets (5 source reports) Operation Sindoor has forced Pakistan's ISI to restructure the operational setup of Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Hizbul Mujahideen, moving from large centralised hubs to multiple facilities across Pakistan, according to intelligence assessments cited by officials on 7 November. The destruction of JeM's headquarters in Bahawalpur and LeT's training facility in Muridke exposed the vulnerability of concentrated bases, prompting the ISI to propose multiple bases. Officials said JeM quickly rebuilt its Bahawalpur headquarters but activity there is minimal, making it largely symbolic to prevent demoralisation among cadres. LeT's Muridke facility was also rebuilt with limited activity. The ISI has helped Hizbul Mujahideen restore its Markaz Raheel Shahid facility at Koti in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and the Mehmoona Jaya camp in Sialkot. An Intelligence Bureau official said intercepts indicate the rebuilt facilities will remain symbolic, with major attacks not executed from them. The ISI has directed the outfits to maintain a low profile during training. The strategy aims to limit disruption if any one facility is targeted. ## Indian Opinion Analysis All four outlets report the same intelligence assessment that Operation Sindoor has forced the ISI to adopt a decentralised, multi-camp model for JeM, LeT and Hizbul Mujahideen, with rebuilt headquarters described as largely symbolic. The Hans India, Tripura Times and Orissa Post reproduce nearly identical wire copy, each noting the historical role of the Muridke facility in attacks such as 26/11 and the 2001 Parliament attack. Yes Punjab adds that the three outfits will increasingly operate in coordination, with leaders retaining only symbolic roles while the ISI exercises direct control. The uniform framing is straight reporting, with no outlet challenging the official account or offering alternative sources. The coverage leaves open how effective the low-profile, dispersed structure will be in evading future Indian strikes. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 2 neutral - Syndicated copy - thehansindia.com Straight wire copy, no editorialising - tripuratimes.com Identical wire copy, no deviation - orissapost.com Identical wire copy, no deviation - yespunjab.com (neutral report) Wire copy with added detail on coordination This brief was synthesised by AI from the 2 sources linked above, so one read covers every framing they carry.
