Tensions between India and Pakistan have escalated following a series of military engagements. On Thursday, India thwarted Pakistan's attempts to strike military sites with drones and missiles across northern and western India. In response, Indian forces targeted and neutralized Pakistani air defense systems.
The situation intensified after India's 'Operation Sindoor', which involved precise missile strikes on nine terror targets in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and Pakistan. The operation was a retaliation to the Pahalgam terror attack, as confirmed by Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri, who stressed that the choice of de-escalation lies with Pakistan.
Both sides have reported significant casualties, with India claiming it killed at least 100 terrorists in its strikes. The exchanges have prompted global calls for restraint, including from US President Donald Trump and China, urging both nations to act in the interest of peace and stability.
