The Ministry of Defence released an official statement through a press communiqué detailing the extent and objectives of the military operations. “Earlier today, the Indian Armed Forces initiated ‘OPERATION SINDOOR,’ which targeted terrorist infrastructures in Pakistan as well as Pakistani-controlled areas of Jammu and Kashmir—locations from which attacks against India were orchestrated and executed.”
As stated in the press release, a total of nine sites were targeted. The statement emphasizes that their actions have been precise, controlled, and not provocative in character. It clarifies further that no Pakistani military installations have been attacked. Additionally, India has shown significant self-restraint both in choosing the objectives and executing the operation.
The ministry restated that the strikes resulted directly from the recent terrorist incident in Pahalgam. They stated, “These actions follow the horrific Pahalgam terror attack where 25 Indian nationals and one Nepalese citizen lost their lives. We remain committed to ensuring that those behind this assault face justice.”
