In a swift 25-minute operation codenamed Operation Sindoor, Indian armed forces struck nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, killing over 80 terrorists linked to Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and Hizbul Mujahideen. The strikes, conducted using Rafale jets with SCALP missiles and Hammer bombs, were a response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. Major hits occurred in Bahawalpur and Muridke. India termed the operation "measured and focused," targeting only terror infrastructure. Pakistan condemned the strikes as an "act of war." Cross-border shelling followed, prompting civilian evacuations along the LoC. (PC: AP)
