What is Operation Sindoor?

On the night of May 6, 2025, India launched a highly concentrated air raid called Operation Sindore. The strike directly retaliated the Pahangam terrorist attack on April 22nd. In the attack, 26 civilians were killed in a fatal attack on the pilgrimage convoys in Jammu and Kashmir.

The operation has been one of India's most important military actions since Barakot's 2019 strike and its zero-tolerance policy compared to cross-border terrorism.

Important details of operation

Duration: 23 minutes

Time: 2:30am to 2:53am, May 6th

Aerial Warning and Control Systems (AWACS) for Airspace Monitoring

Satellite and drone monitoring for real-time strike adjustments

According to Indian officials, the IAF was able to complete the mission without any losses and suffering.

Effects and victims

Estimated loss: More than 70 terrorists have died

Destroyed infrastructure: command centers, training facilities, ammunition depots

The video released after the strike shows a massive explosion and flat structure at a well-known terrorist training site.

Strategic Implications

Ducking Off: Send a strong message to terrorist costumes and sponsors in their states.

Military enthusiasm: Demonstrates the improvement of India's business skills and coordination of real-time strikes.

Diplomatic Pressure: Global attention to Pakistan continued to use the territory for terrorism.

Pakistan's answer

The next day, Pakistan responded with a rocket attack on cashmere with Indian cashmere, claiming it had targeted Indian military property. However, the Ministry of India challenged the scope of these claims and declared that three planes were damaged, but no greater infrastructure was carried out.

The risk of further escalation remains high as global authority, including the US, Russia and the United Nations.

What's next?

India will expand surveillance and defense along the line of control (LOC), but Operation Senoa may not be the final chapter. A combination of military, diplomacy and cyber strategies can be used to ensure the long-term security of the region. In the meantime, civil defense exercises such as "Operation of Abhijah" began preparing civilians for potential retaliation measures across the country.

Diploma

Operation Sindore marked a turning point in strategy to combat courageous, surgical and clear Indian terrorism. It's not just a military message, it's the nation's explanation that terrorism is determined by iron.

As tensions remain high, India is determined to pursue peace, justice and national security.
