New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi commended the Indian Armed Forces for the successful execution of Operation Sindoor, which was launched in retaliation for the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam. Addressing a Union Cabinet meeting following the strike, Modi said the armed forces had done “a commendable job,” and called it “a proud moment for the entire nation.”
The operation, which targeted nine terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), is believed to have inflicted significant damage on terror infrastructure. Intelligence reports confirmed the elimination of several militants, including 14 members of the family of Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) founder Masood Azhar.
