In the early hours of Wednesday, India initiated Operation Sindoor, a military campaign aimed at destroying terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (POK). The operation saw the deployment of air, naval, and ground forces, making it India’s largest cross-border precision strike since the 2019 Balakot airstrike.
The operation was launched in response to the terror attack on April 22 in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which claimed the lives of 26 civilians, including a serving Indian Navy officer and a Nepali national. The attackers were reportedly affiliated with Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), a Pakistan-based militant group, which has long been accused of receiving logistical and financial backing from the Pakistani government.
