About Operation Sindoor
In retaliation for the deadly Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, 2025, the Indian Army launched 'Operation Sindoor' on May 7, 2025, conducting 24 precision missile strikes on nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (POK).
The terrorists killed 26 civilians at Baisaran Valley in Pahalgam, Kashmir, following which India launched the attack against Pakistan-based militant groups Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Azad Kashmir.
