Army Chief Says Operation Sindoor Ongoing, Warns Pakistan After Drone Sightings

Gen Upendra Dwivedi cited deep strikes and troop mobilisation as proof of expanded conventional space.

Overview

  • DGMO-level talks were held with Pakistan as India demanded it rein in drones spotted near the LoC, with counter-UAS measures forcing several to turn back.
  • Operation Sindoor remains active as a calibrated deterrent following its 22‑minute initiation and 88 hours of coordinated action in May 2025.
  • The Army says it was fully prepared to launch ground operations during the May escalation, with officials attributing roughly 100 enemy fatalities and seven of nine targets destroyed.
  • Roughly eight terror camps are assessed as active across the border—six opposite the LoC and two opposite the International Border—and are under surveillance.
  • The security situation in Jammu and Kashmir is described as sensitive but under control, with 31 terrorists killed in 2025, about 65% of them of Pakistani origin, and local militants down to single digits.
