Indian Army launches Operation Sindoor, says 'justice is served'

The Indian armed forces launched ‘Operation Sindoor’ in the early hours of Wednesday, hitting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir in response to the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 tourists.

"Justice is Served. Jai Hind!', the Indian Army said in a post on X.



"A little while ago, the Indian Armed Forces launched 'OPERATION SINDOOR', hitting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir from where terrorist attacks against India have been planned and directed," ministry of defence said in a statement.


"Our actions have been focused, measured and non-escalatory in nature. No Pakistani military facilities have been targeted. India has demonstrated considerable restraint in selection of targets and method of execution," said it added.

The ministry said that there will be a detailed briefing regarding the operation later in the day.


In an earlier post, the Army had written: "Prhaaraay SnnihitaaH, Jyaay PrshikssitaaH. Ready to strike, trained to win."
