Operation Sindoor: A Strike for Justice In response to the April 22, 2025, Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives, India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, targeting nine terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The precision strikes, lauded by global leaders like the UK’s Keir Starmer, Israel’s Reuven Azar, and Dutch politician Geert Wilders, hit key Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba bases, killing over 70 terrorists while sparing civilian infrastructure.
