STORYLINE:
India’s military said on Wednesday that it’s operation against Pakistan is to "deliver justice" to those killed in last month’s attack on Hindu tourists in the Indian-administered Kashmir.
“Operation Sindoor was launched to deliver justice to the victims of the dastardly terror attack of 22 April in Pahalgam, and their family members," Indian army officer Col. Sofiya Qureshi told a media briefing in New Delhi.
Tensions have soared between the nuclear-armed neighbors since an attack in which gunmen killed 26 people, mostly Indian Hindu tourists, at a popular meadow in the disputed territory of Kashmir.
India said earlier that it struck infrastructure used by militants linked to last month’s massacre.
Indian officials has blamed Pakistan for backing the attack, something Islamabad has denied.
Another officer, Wing Commander Vyomika Singh, said the strikes were undertaken through “precision capability” so that there was “no collateral damage.”
“India has demonstrated considerable restraint in its response,” she said. “However, it must be said that the Indian armed forces are fully prepared respond to Pakistani misadventures if any that will escalate the situation.”
The Indian army also displayed maps which claim to show "terrorist camps" in Pakistan and Pakistani-controlled Kashmir, and said nine of these camps were "targeted and completely destroyed" as part of the operation.
India fired missiles into Pakistani-controlled territory in several locations early Wednesday, killing at least 26 people including a child, in what Pakistan’s leader called an act of war.
Pakistan said at 26 people died in the missiles strikes and five from artillery exchange along the Line of Control that separates the two countries in Kashmir.
