Overview

• India's Operation Sindoor, launched on May 7 in response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, eliminating over 100 terrorists.
• The operation ceased on May 10 following a request from Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations, with India firmly rejecting any notion of U.S. mediation.
• External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar confirmed that Pakistan was only informed of the strikes post-execution, countering allegations of prior communication.
• India has deployed seven multi-party delegations globally to highlight its zero-tolerance policy on terrorism and expose Pakistan's alleged sponsorship of terror activities.
• While most of the international community, including Germany, supports India's actions, Turkiye, Azerbaijan, and China remain notable exceptions.
