Operation Sindoor: India Strikes Back in Pakistan and PoK

India launched Operation Sindoor, a series of precision strikes on terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK), in response to the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people.
The operation targeted nine terror sites, including those linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammad, with an aim to neutralize terror infrastructure and restore strategic deterrence post-Balakot.
Led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and coordinated with top military leaders, the operation was described as focused, measured, and non-escalatory.
