India did not sit back, but announced a series of diplomatic and punitive measures against Pakistan. The measures that New Delhi announced included- suspension of the Indus Water Treaty, banning ships bearing Pakistani flags from Indian ports, and several more. Following this, the Indian Armed Forces on May 7 launched Operation Sindoor, hitting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK). The Ministry of Defence's statement had clarified that India's response was focused, measured, and non-escalatory. After this, Pakistan launched a swarm of drones and missile attacks on Indian territory, and India responded to these attacks. After days of conflict between the two nations, the Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) of Pakistan contacted his Indian counterpart, and both sides reached a ceasefire deal applicable on land, sea, and air.
