In early May 2025 a significant military operation unfolded between India and Pakistan, following a deadly terrorist attack in Indian administered Kashmir.

Background: The Pahalgam Attack
On 22nd April 2025, militants attacked near Pahalgam in Kashmir, resulting in the deaths of 28 civilians, predominantly Hindu tourists. This tragic event intensified existing tensions between India and Pakistan with India attributing the attack to Pakistan-backed groups, a claim Pakistan denied.
Launch of Operation-Sindoor
In response to the Pahalgam attack India initiated Operation-Sindoor on 7th May 2025. The operation aimed to dismantle terrorist infrastructure without targeting civilian or Pakistani military establishments.
Key Targets of the Operation:
- Chaklala Airbase
- Rafiqui Airbase
- Rahim Yar Khan
- Sargodha
- Bhulari
- Jacobabad
These sites were identified as hubs for terrorist activities. The Indian Air Force conducted precise strikes to minimize collateral damage.
