India's Operation Sindoor, launched in response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, targeted nine sites in Pakistan, including Bahawalpur, Muridke, and Muzaffarabad, aiming at terrorist infrastructure. The strikes reportedly resulted in over 100 militant deaths. In retaliation, Pakistan claimed to have downed five Indian jets and initiated Operation Bunyān Mārsūs, launching Fattah missiles at Indian military installations. The escalating conflict led to significant casualties on both sides and raised international concerns. A U.S.-brokered ceasefire was announced, but violations were reported shortly after. Amidst the tensions, Pakistan's Army Chief Asim Munir reportedly moved to a bunker following strikes near Nur Khan Airbase, indicating heightened security measures. (PC: Business Today)
