On May 7, 2025, India launched 'Operation Sindoor'—a coordinated tri-services strike targeting nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. This action was in retaliation for the April 22 Pahalgam attack, where 26 civilians were killed. The operation focused on facilities linked to Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and Hizbul Mujahideen, resulting in over 80 terrorist casualties. External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar emphasized the need for global zero tolerance towards terrorism. Home Minister Amit Shah hailed the operation as India's decisive response to cross-border terrorism. India's diplomatic outreach has garnered support from nations like the UAE and Japan, highlighting a unified international stance against terrorism. (PC: News18)
