Operation Sindoor LIVE Updates, India-Pakistan War:Tensions between India and Pakistan rose sharply after Pakistan launched an attack on India's Jammu & Kashmir on Saturday (May 10).
Pakistan claims missile attacks on multiple PAF airbases
Pakistan's attack came after it claimed missile attacks on multiple PAF airbases including Nur Khan Military Airbase in Rawalpindi, Murid Airbase in Chakwal and Rafiqui Airbase in Shorkot, Jhang district.
Pakistan has been provoking India and violating the ceasefire across the LoC and International border for two consecutive days. This escalation came after India launched Operation Sindoor against 9 terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).
The Ministry of Defence confirmed the strikes early Wednesday, calling them a “focused, measured and non-escalatory” response to the recent attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam, where terrorists brutally killed 26 civilians after identifying and segregating them.
‘Justice is Served,’ says Indian Army
Soon after the strikes, the Indian Army took to social media platform X to say: “Justice is served. Jai Hind!” Before this, the Army had posted: "Ready to strike, trained to win."
All air defence units along the India-Pakistan border have been fully activated to counter any potential retaliation.
