While the country is hailing the Indian Armed Forces for a strong response against the horrifying attack, Pakistani actors Mahira Khan and Hania Aamir have condemened the strikes.
Mahira Khan, one of the most prominent Pakistani actresses, who has shared the screen with Shah Rukh Khan in Raees, reposted writer Fatima Bhutto’s tweet criticizing the strikes and added, “Seriously cowardly!!! May Allah protect our country, may better sense prevail. Ameen."
Meanwhile, Hania Aamir, who has been making headlines since India blocked the accounts of Pakistani actors in the country, also reacted to Operation Sindoor in her one-word post. Hania took to her Instagram and wrote, “Cowardly."
About Operation Sindoor
The operation, which was greenlit following a high-level security meeting chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on April 29, included strikes on key strongholds of banned terror outfits. As per PTI, these included the Jaish-e-Mohammad’s base in Bahawalpur and Lashkar-e-Taiba’s sprawling markaz in Muridke, located near Lahore. Additional targets in PoK included Kotli and Muzaffarabad, regions known to host camps and training grounds for both LeT and JeM.
The Indian Ministry of Defence, in a statement issued at 1:44 am IST, confirmed the launch of Operation Sindoor, stating: “A little while ago, the Indian armed forces launched ‘Operation Sindoor,’ hitting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir from where terrorist attacks against India have been planned and directed.”
India Bans Pakistani Actors' Accounts
Following the horrific Pahalgam terror attack, the Indian government is tightening the noose around Pakistani nationals. As India makes all efforts to fight back against the neighboring country, the government decided to attack the digital space earlier, with the Instagram accounts of many Pakistani artists now blocked and inaccessible in India.
About the Pahalgam terror attack
The deadly terror attack on tourists claimed at least 26 lives, including a local who fought the terrorists and tried to snatch their gun when he was shot. The terrorists segregated the tourists based on their faith and shot them after finding out their religion.
The terrorist outfit, The Resistance Front (TRF), has claimed responsibility for the attack. TRF is an offshoot of the Pakistan-based terrorist group Lashkar-e-Taiba and came into existence following the historic abrogation of Article 370 in Kashmir, which granted special status to the Indian state, now a union territory.
