A blow-by-blow account of Operation Sindoor - India’s response to the deadly Pahalgam terror attack
- On May 7, 2025, the Indian Air Force carried out Operation Sindoor, conducting precision airstrikes on multiple terror hideouts across Pakistan and the Pakistan-administered region of Kashmir, as a response to the Pahalgam attack.
- The operation followed the April 22 attack in Pahalgam where Pakistan-based terrorists killed 26 civilians, prompting India to strike terror infrastructure linked to Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and Hizbul Mujahideen.
- The strikes included precise air-launched guided munitions targeting training facilities in Bahawalpur, Muridke, Sialkot, and other locations, aiming to minimize collateral damage and avoid Pakistani civilian or military sites.
- Military officials reported that over 100 militants were eliminated during the operation, among them key figures like Yusuf Azhar, who was linked to the IC-814 hijacking and other terrorist activities.
- Following four days of cross-border skirmishes and drone incursions, India and Pakistan agreed to a ceasefire on May 10, though reports indicated Pakistan violated it within hours by firing across the Line of Control.
