The Indian Armed Forces launched ‘OPERATION SINDOOR’ after the midnight of Tuesday-Wednesday, hitting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir from where terrorist attacks against India have been planned and directed.

Altogether, nine sites have been targeted, the defence ministry said in an official release issued at 1.44 am.

"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," it said.

These steps come in the wake of the barbaric Pahalgam terrorist attack in which 25 Indians and one Nepali citizen were murdered. "We are living up to the commitment that those responsible for this attack will be held accountable," it said.

The ministry will hold a detailed briefing on ‘OPERATION SINDOOR’ later Wednesday.
