US EditionFrom just across LoC to 100 km inside Pakistan: India's Operation Sindoor, 2016 surgical strike, 2019 Balakot airstrike | What changed?
- On May 7, 2025, India launched Operation Sindoor, a precision missile strike targeting nine terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
- The operation followed the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack by a Lashkar-e-Taiba offshoot that killed 26 civilians and challenged India’s Kashmir stability narrative.
- Operation Sindoor saw targeted strikes using BrahMos missiles and loitering munitions on key terror facilities connected to the networks of Hafiz Saeed and Masood Azhar, deliberately excluding Pakistani military sites to prevent escalating tensions.
- India described the strikes as "focused, measured, and non-escalatory," and coupled them with suspending the Indus Waters Treaty and restricting diplomatic ties with Pakistan.
- The operation demonstrated India’s resolve and strategic restraint, anticipating Pakistan’s retaliatory ceasefire violations that caused civilian casualties along the Line of Control.
