According to an official press release from the Press Information Bureau (PIB), the strikes targeted terrorist infrastructure responsible for planning and directing attacks against India. The operation was conducted in the early hours of Wednesday, reflecting India’s commitment to holding the perpetrators of terrorism accountable.

“Our actions have been focused, measured, and non-escalatory in nature. No Pakistani military facilities have been targeted,” the statement clarified.

The government emphasized that India exercised considerable restraint, both in the selection of targets and the method of execution, signaling its intention to respond to terrorism without provoking broader military conflict.

The precision strikes were carried out just days after the Pahalgam terrorist attack, which claimed the lives of 25 Indian citizens and one Nepali national. The gruesome incident had triggered widespread public outrage and urgent calls for decisive action.

“We are living up to the commitment that those responsible for this attack will be held accountable,” the PIB stated.

Altogether, nine (9) sites have been targeted.

Further details about Operation Sindoor are expected to be disclosed during a detailed briefing later today.

The operation marks a significant moment in India’s counter-terrorism strategy, reinforcing its stance that cross-border terrorism will be met with firm, targeted responses.
