Operation Sindoor was India’s measured military response to the brutal terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, on April 22, 2025, which left 26 civilians and soldiers dead. At 1:05 am on May 6, Indian forces launched 24 precision missile strikes across nine identified terrorist locations in Pakistan and PoK. Within just 25 minutes, the coordinated attack decimated nine terror camps, reportedly killing 70 terrorists and injuring over 60 others.
The operation, as stated by the government, was a demonstration of strategic resolve. It involved advanced munitions like HAMMER bombs, SCALP missiles, and hovering precision weapons capable of verifying targets before detonation. These strikes were carefully timed to avoid escalation, and no Pakistani military installations were hit, as clarified by the Indian military command.
