In a decisive 25-minute operation named 'Sindoor', India launched 24 precision missile strikes on nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir, eliminating 70 militants. This action was in response to the April 22 Pahalgam attack, where 26 Hindu pilgrims were killed. Utilizing Rafale jets equipped with SCALP and Hammer missiles, the strikes targeted locations in Bahawalpur, Muridke, Tehra Kalan, Sialkot, Bhimber, Kotli, and Muzaffarabad. India emphasized the operation's focus on terrorist infrastructure, denying civilian casualties. Pakistan reported 26 civilian deaths, including children, and vowed retaliation. The international community, including the UN and major powers, urged restraint amid escalating tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbors. (PC: NDTV & Mathrubhumi English)
