It also struck LeT's base in Markaz Ahle Hadith in Barnala and its camp in Muzaffarabad's Shawai Nalla.
Following the Indian action, Pakistan attempted to attack Indian military bases on May 8, 9 and 10.
The Pakistani attempts were strongly responded to by the Indian side by inflicting heavy damages to a number of key Pakistani military installations including air bases, air defence systems, command and control centres and radar sites.
Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri on May 10 announced that India and Pakistan reached an understanding to stop all firings and military actions on land, air and sea, with immediate effect.
New Delhi has been maintaining that India's fierce attacks on May 10 forced Pakistan to plead for ending the hostilities.
India said Operation Sindoor reflected India's new approach in combating
cross-border terrorism
from Pakistan and its resolve to not succumb to Islamabad's nuclear blackmail.
