“...This was the right way to respond — the attack was not carried out on any civilian or military area in Pakistan, but only on locations where terrorists operate. These are the same terrorists who have been spreading destruction in Jammu and Kashmir for the past 30–35 years. They were specifically targeted.

The beginning was from their side, not ours. Had they not attacked in Pahalgam, today wouldn’t have come... We had to respond to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam.

Our neighboring country must first learn to stay peaceful; only then will guns from this side fall silent.”

Breaking News: Operation Sindoor Unleashed – India Strikes Terror Camps Across Pakistan

A Bold Move: India Launches Precision Airstrikes

In a swift response to the deadly Pahalgam terror attack, India has launched Operation Sindoor, carrying out precision airstrikes on nine major terrorist camps located across Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir. This military operation, which began in the early hours of May 7, 2025, aims to dismantle terror networks that were behind the brutal attack that claimed 26 innocent lives in Pahalgam.

Casualties Mounting: Terror Camps Destroyed

The airstrikes have resulted in significant casualties, with at least eight killed and over 35 injured, including women and children. These attacks targeted terrorist strongholds in areas such as Kotli, Bahawalpur, Muzaffarabad, and Muridke. The destruction is expected to cause a major blow to the operations of terror groups in the region.

Indian Army's Statement: A Strong Message

The Indian Army has confirmed that the strikes were aimed at terrorist infrastructure involved in planning attacks against India. A spokesperson from the Army stated, "Our forces executed these strikes based on credible intelligence to prevent further terror activities." India has made it clear that such actions will continue as long as the threat remains.

Pakistan Responds: Escalating Tensions

Pakistan's Retaliation: A Shaky Response

In the aftermath of the strikes, Pakistan has condemned the attacks, calling them an "unprovoked act of aggression." The Pakistani army has claimed that it shot down two Indian jets and launched retaliatory strikes, including targeting Indian military positions.

Casualties in Pakistan: A Heavy Price

The Pakistani military reports that at least eight people have been killed and more than 35 injured in the wake of India's missile strikes. The damage is particularly severe in areas like Punjab, where several buildings have collapsed and caused widespread panic among civilians.

Global Eyes on the Situation: International Community Urges Restraint

The World Watches: Calls for Peace

The ongoing conflict has drawn concern from the global community. The United Nations has called for immediate restraint from both India and Pakistan, urging both countries to avoid any further escalation that could destabilize the region.

Meanwhile, China and the United States have also voiced their concerns, stressing the importance of dialogue and diplomatic efforts to prevent further violence.

Public Sentiment: India Stands Strong

Political Leaders Speak Out

Indian politicians are rallying behind the government’s decision to strike back at terror camps. BJP chief JP Nadda echoed the sentiment of national unity, saying, "India will not let anyone harm its people. We will defend ourselves and our borders at all costs." On the other hand, Congress has called for solidarity in these trying times, urging citizens to support the government’s decision to safeguard national security.

What's Next? Will There Be More Strikes?

As tensions escalate, the world is left wondering whether this operation will trigger more violence or whether it will bring the necessary pressure to end the ongoing terror threat. The coming days will be critical in determining the path forward in Indo-Pakistani relations.
