The Indian government launched Operation Sindoor following a brutal attack by terrorists allegedly supported by Pakistan. The mission aimed to dismantle terror infrastructure and neutralize any imminent threats to India.
The operation involved pre-dawn precision strikes on May 7, 2025, targeting nine terror camps located in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. These decisive actions were executed to avenge the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, marking a significant victory for Indian forces and raising Indian morale.
Although Pakistan attempted to escalate the situation by targeting Indian civilian and military areas, a ceasefire was reached on May 10, 2025, following a request from Pakistan's military leadership. The operation underscored India's commitment to counterterrorism and the challenges posed by cross-border threats.
