Overview

  • India's Operation Sindoor, launched on May 7, targeted nine terror camps in Pakistan and PoK, killing over 100 terrorists and dismantling key infrastructure.
  • Pakistan retaliated with large-scale drone and missile attacks on Indian military and civilian locations, which were largely intercepted by India's air defense systems.
  • Despite a ceasefire agreement on May 10, Pakistan violated the truce with cross-border firing and drone incursions, prompting further Indian military responses.
  • India has suspended the Indus Waters Treaty and emphasized a policy shift treating terrorism as an act of war, signaling a new strategic doctrine.
  • Directors General of Military Operations from both nations are set to meet today to discuss maintaining the tenuous ceasefire and preventing further escalation.
