The operation was carried out in response to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22.

The 26-minute operation, executed between 1:04am and 1:30am, struck nine terrorist camps, including key installations like the Lashkar-e-Taiba headquarters in Muridke and Jaish-e-Mohammed's base in Bahawalpur. The government said that 'Operation Sindoor' was India's response to the deadly Pahalgam terror attack that claimed lives of 26 civilians.
