India conducted strikes on nine terrorist sites in Pakistan. The action comes in response to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. In the first visual of India’s Operation Sindoor against Pakistan, an Indian missile purportedly targeted a mosque, linked to Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, near Lahore.
The attack targeted nine locations across the border using Rafale jets with Scalp cruise missiles and Hammer precision-guided munitions. Reports indicate a Pakistani fighter jet was shot down in Pampur, near Srinagar. The operation involved coordinated efforts from the army, air force and navy.
Shortly after the confirmation of military strikes in Pakistan, Indian Army said in a post on X “Justice is served. Jai Hind!”.
Anti-India terror outfits such as Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), and Hizbul Mujahideen, among others, have been receiving covert aid from the Pakistan Army and its Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency. This support includes systematically coordinated financial, logistical, doctrinal, and military assistance, as well as direct combat training, officials added. Pakistani military officers regularly visit and supervise sessions at training camps operated by these groups, which have been rebranded as The Resistance Front (TRF), People’s Anti-Fascist Front (PAFF), Kashmir Tigers (KT), etc., to evade global scrutiny and portray their terrorism as an indigenous resistance movement.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who vowed stringent punishment for the perpetrators of the April 22 Pahalgam attack, constantly monitored the Indian armed forces’ operation throughout the night.
