India-Pakistan Tensions Indian armed forces on May 7 launched Operation Sindoor, under which they destroyed nine terror infrastructures in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The targeted military operation was in response to the terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam, where 26 civilians were killed by terrorists on April 22. India has clarified that its response was focused, measured, and non-escalatory. However, Pakistan escalated the conflict after it launched a swarm of drones and missile attacks on Indian territory, compelling New Delhi to respond. After days of fighting, Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) contacted his Indian counterpart, and both sides reached a ceasefire deal applicable on land, sea, and air.

India's action came in response to the terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam on April 22, which claimed the lives of 26 people and injured several others. Following India's action, Pakistan retaliated with cross-border shelling across the Line of Control and Jammu and Kashmir as well as attempted drone attacks along the border regions, following which India launched a coordinated attack and damaged radar infrastructure, communication centres and airfields across airbases in Pakistan. On May 10, India and Pakistan reached an understanding on the cessation of hostilities. (ANI)
