As part of Operation Sindoor, Indian armed forces conducted strikes on JeM training grounds and hideouts in Pakistan
The coordinated and measured strikes on the terror camps were in response to the terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam that killed 25 tourists and one local pony guide.
The infiltration attempt by JeM terrorists, with support from Pakistan Rangers on Thursday night, coincided with attempted strikes at multiple locations in Jammu, Pathankot, and Jaisalmer by Pakistan.
“Pakistan Armed Forces launched multiple attacks using drones and other munitions along entire Western Border on the intervening night of 08 and 09 May 2025. Pak troops also resorted to numerous cease fire violations (CFVs) along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir. The drone attacks were effectively repulsed, and befitting reply was given to the CFVs. Indian Army remains committed to safeguarding the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Nation. All nefarious designs will be responded with force,” a statement issued by the Indian Army said.
