Operation Sindoor
In a powerful and strategic response to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22, the Indian Armed Forces on early Wednesday (May 7) launched a series of precision strikes against under code-named Operation Sindoor.
India launched Operation Sindoor on the night of May 6-7 and hit nine terror camps located deep inside Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). India confirmed that its strikes have killed at least five dreaded terrorists from terror groups Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT).
Tensions between both nations rose after Pakistan retaliated on Indian villages, making civilians their targets and military posts. As many as 16 people including soldiers lost their lives in Pakistani shelling and drone attack.
On May 10, India's Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri confirmed that India and Pakistan agreed to a ceasefire with immediate effect. EAM S Jaishankar reiterated the same but also said that the country will continue its "uncompromising stance against terrorism in all its forms and manifestations." Pakistani drone attacks continued on the day of ceasefire as well, after which Misri issued a statement and told Pakistan to deal with the situation with “seriousness and responsibility”.
