In a swift and calculated military move, the Indian armed forces carried out Operation Sindoor, targeting nine terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). The operation comes just two weeks after the devastating terror attack in Pahalgam, which killed 25 people, including several tourists.
Nine Terror Sites Targeted in Pakistan and PoK
The Indian Army issued a statement early Wednesday confirming that the strikes were carried out under the codename Operation Sindoor. The targets were specific terrorist infrastructures used to launch attacks on Indian soil. These included camps from where planning, training, and execution of cross-border operations were directed.
No Pakistani Military Facilities Targeted
In its statement, the army clarified that the operation strictly avoided Pakistani military sites, underlining India’s focus on anti-terror objectives. The strikes were aimed solely at dismantling the networks behind the recent rise in cross-border terrorism.
Army Says India Showed Strategic Restraint
The army emphasized that India exercised significant restraint both in terms of the selection of targets and the mode of execution. The objective was clear: eliminate terror bases without provoking unnecessary escalation.
Detailed Briefing Expected Soon
A full press briefing on Operation Sindoor is scheduled for later today. More operational details, including visuals and assessment of the damage, are expected to be shared by the Indian military leadership.
