'India's response proportionate, non-escalatory and responsible,' says Foreign Secretary

  • On the morning of May 7, 2025, Indian military forces conducted precise missile strikes targeting nine terrorist locations across territories of Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir as part of Operation Sindoor.
  • The operation followed the brutal April 22 Pahalgam terror attack on Hindu tourists, prompting Prime Minister Modi to grant full operational freedom to the armed forces.
  • The strikes hit terror camps including Jaish-e-Mohammad's Bahawalpur and Lashkar-e-Taiba's Muridke, with Pakistan reporting eight deaths and India confirming Pakistani artillery killed three civilians.
  • India described its response as measured and non-escalatory, while China expressed regret, urged restraint, and called for peace between the nuclear-armed neighbours amid increased tensions.
  • The retaliation led to flight cancellations, school closures in border regions, and heightened diplomatic activity as global leaders urged calm and rapid de-escalation.
