Tue May 06 20:50:48 UTC 2025: ## India Launches Cross-Border Strikes in Retaliation for Terror Attack

**NEW DELHI, INDIA – May 7, 2025** – The Indian armed forces conducted surgical strikes against nine infrastructure targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) overnight, the Indian government announced early this morning. The operation, codenamed “Operation Sindoor,” targeted facilities allegedly involved in planning and directing terrorist attacks against India, specifically citing the recent Pahalgam terror attack.

The government statement emphasized the measured nature of the response, asserting that no Pakistani military installations were targeted. “Our actions have been focused, measured and non-escalatory in nature,” the statement read. “India has demonstrated considerable restraint in selection of targets and method of execution.”

The strikes come in direct response to the deadly Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed the lives of 25 Indian and one Nepali citizen. The government declared that this action fulfills its commitment to hold those responsible for the attack accountable. A detailed briefing on the operation is expected later today. #PahalgamTerrorAttack #JusticeIsServed #JaiHind
