The Indian Armed Forces on Wednesday launched 'Operation Sindoor', targeting terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), days after the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people.

The Pahalgam terror attack took place in south Kashmir on April 22 in which tourists were mainly targeted.


The Defence Ministry in a post on X wrote, "India has launched #OperationSindoor, a precise and restrained response to the barbaric #PahalgamTerrorAttack that claimed 26 lives, including one Nepali citizen. Focused strikes were carried out on nine #terrorist infrastructure sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, targeting the roots of cross-border terror planning. Importantly, no Pakistani military facilities were hit, reflecting India’s calibrated and non-escalatory approach. This operation underscores India’s resolve to hold perpetrators accountable while avoiding unnecessary provocation. A detailed briefing on the operation will follow later today."


An official statement from the government said, "A little while ago, the Indian Armed Forces launched 'Operation Sindoor', hitting terrorist infrastructure from where terrorist attacks against India have been planned and directed. Altogether, nine sites have been targeted."

"Our actions have been focused, measured and non-escalatory in nature. No Pakistani military facilities have been targeted. India has demonstrated considerable restraint in selection of targets and method of execution," the statement said.

"These steps come in the wake of the barbaric Pahalgam terrorist attack in which 25 Indians and one Nepali citizen were murdered. We are living up to the commitment that those responsible for this attack will be held accountable," it said.

Meanwhile, the Indian Army shared a post on X and wrote, "Justice is Served."

In an another post the Indian Army said, "Pakistan again violates the Ceasefire Agreement by firing Artillery in Bhimber Gali in Poonch- Rajauri area. The Indian Army is responding appropriately in a calibrated manner."
