What Is ‘Operation Sindoor’?

Operation Sindoor, launched in the early hours of May 7, 2025, was a coordinated offensive by the Indian Air Force, missile units, and special forces targeting nine major terrorist hubs in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.

According to preliminary military briefings, the strikes focused on critical infrastructure belonging to Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed in locations such as Muridke, Bahawalpur, Muzaffarabad, and Kotli.

The operation was a direct response to the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, which killed 26 civilians, mostly Hindu tourists, and injured dozens. Intelligence reports linked the attack to Pakistan-based operatives affiliated with banned terrorist organisations.

Pahalgam Terror Attack

On 22 April 2025, five heavily armed terrorists brutally attacked non-Muslim tourists in Jammu and Kashmir’s Baisaran Valley.

They killed at least 26 civilians, including a local Muslim who tried to resist them.

The Resistance Front, linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, initially claimed responsibility, citing opposition to demographic changes in Kashmir.
