Apr 19 2025, 8 pmeznews.inThe Indian government has announced a significant shift in its counter-terrorism strategy, exemplified by Operation Sindoor, launched in response to the deadly Pahalgam attack that killed 26 tourists. This operation involved precision missile strikes on nine terrorist facilities across Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir, targeting key command centers of groups like Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba.
