'Operation Sindoor': How India hit back after Pahalgam terror attack
After the Pahalgam terror attack in April 2025, India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, striking nine terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir (PoK).
Using a mix of Rafale jets, drones, and precision-guided weapons, the operation focused on targeted hits rather than large-scale escalation.
Meet the team behind the mission
The mission was led by Group Captain Ranjeet Singh Sidhu, who guided deep strikes through tough air defenses, with Group Captain Manish Arora handling daring low-level raids.
Group Captain Animesh Patni's missile units protected the teams, while Colonel Koshank Lamba coordinated rapid artillery support—everyone working together under heavy fire.
A new way for India to deal with threats
Operation Sindoor signals a new approach for India: smart, precise action against terror networks without pushing things toward full-blown war.
It's all about advanced teamwork and homegrown tech, showing India's intent to hit back hard but keep things under control.
