India took revenge from Pakistan for the Pahalgam attack
Meanwhile, India took revenge for the sindoor that was wiped off from the foreheads of Indian women by Pakistani mercenaries 15 days ago in Pahalgam. On the intervening night of 6 and 7 May, the country’s armed forces attacked terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Through these attacks with deadly drones and missiles, terrorist infrastructure was destroyed at nine places. The nine terrorist hideouts in Pakistan that India attacked in response to the Pahalgam terrorist attack include the areas of Bahawalpur, Muridke, Chak Amru, Sialkot, Bhimber, Gulpur, Kotli, Bagh and Muzaffarabad.
The answer to Pahalgam is ‘Operation Sindoor’
Prime Minister Narendra Modi chose the name ‘Operation Sindoor’ for the action of the Indian armed forces on nine terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Official sources said on Wednesday that after the terrorists killed 26 civilians, the pictures of the wives of many of the victims had shocked the entire country. Therefore, the name ‘Operation Sindoor’ was considered most appropriate for the retaliatory action.
