Pakistan calls India strike ‘act of war,’ says it downed Indian jets
- India initiated Operation Sindoor early Wednesday, conducting targeted air attacks across multiple sites in both Pakistan and the region of Pakistan-controlled Kashmir, as a direct response to a recent militant assault in Kashmir.
- The strikes followed a terrorist assault that killed 26 tourists in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which India blames on Pakistan-based militant groups, while Pakistan denies involvement and calls the strikes an act of war.
- The airstrikes targeted areas including Pakistan's Punjab province, marking a significant escalation and triggering cross-border shelling by Pakistan, which claimed to have downed Indian jets during aerial skirmishes along the Line of Control.
- India’s Operation Sindoor reportedly caused at least 31 deaths and aims to dismantle terrorist infrastructure, while analysts warn the escalation risks regional stability amid growing fears of prolonged conflict between the nuclear-armed neighbors.
- The escalation has drawn international calls for restraint, including from the UN, UK, China, and the US, amid concerns for civilian safety and urgent appeals for dialogue to prevent further violence.
