India's "Operation Sindoor" targeted nine sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir, including Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba hubs, following the Pahalgam attack that killed 26 Indian tourists. India claims over 100 terrorists were killed, including Abdul Rauf Azhar, linked to Daniel Pearl's 2002 beheading. Pakistan denies Azhar's death, reports 31 civilian casualties, and launched "Operation Bunyan-un-Marsoos" in retaliation, striking Indian military targets. Both nations report civilian deaths and military engagements along the Kashmir border. The conflict marks the most severe escalation between the nuclear-armed neighbors in decades, prompting international calls for de-escalation. India's strikes were described as "focused, measured, and non-escalatory," while Pakistan condemned them as "cowardly attacks" on civilians. (PC: The Quint & YouTube)
