The Indian armed forces have officially announced the execution of “Operation Sindoor,” which involved precise strikes on nine distinct locations in Pakistan and the areas of Jammu and Kashmir under Pakistani control.

In an official statement, the Indian Armed Forces detailed the operation, which they described as a strategic effort to dismantle terrorist infrastructure that has been used as a base for planning and coordinating attacks against India.

The statement highlights that the operation specifically targeted installations believed to support terrorism, while intentionally refraining from striking any military facilities belonging to Pakistan.

The operations were characterized as “focused, measured, and non-escalatory,” showcasing India’s commitment to maintaining restraint during the execution.

The statement emphasized that careful consideration was given to target selection, reflecting a deliberate strategy to minimize any potential for broader conflict.

This decisive action followed a tragic and “barbaric” terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, which resulted in the loss of numerous Indian lives.

The Indian Armed Forces reiterated that this operation serves as a direct response to the threats posed by militants operating from these regions, reinforcing their resolve to safeguard national security.
