In the early hours of Wednesday, the Indian Armed Forces successfully struck nine terror targets using special precision munitions in a coordinated operation called Operation Sindoor.
They destroyed four targets in Pakistan, including Bahawalpur, Muridke, Sarjal, and Mehmoona Joya, and five targets in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
The operation was jointly carried out by the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force, with the mobilisation of assets and troops, as per ANI.
As per reports, the Indian forces selected the locations to target top Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) leaders involved in sponsoring terrorist activities in India.
This is India's deepest strike inside Pakistan's undisputed territory since 1971.
PM Modi monitored the operation throughout the night, ensuring that all targets were successfully hit.
The Ministry of Defence also issued an official statement confirming Operation Sindoor and its details.
The statement mentioned, "In the early hours of Wednesday, the Indian Army 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."
Several celebrities, including Rajinikanth, Chiranjeevi, Akshay Kumar, Preity Zinta, Suniel Shetty, Taapsee Pannu and more reacted to India's strike with their individual posts on social media.
Meanwhile, the tension between India and Pakistani continue to rise ever since the terror attack in Kashmir's Pahalgam region which left 26 dead.
