India successfully neutralized a barrage of Pakistani drones and missiles targeting military installations across northern and western India on May 7-8, 2025. In retaliation for the Pahalgam attack that killed 26, India launched Operation Sindoor, targeting terror sites in Pakistan. India’s defense systems thwarted the attack, while airstrikes eliminated over 100 terrorists. Pakistan’s air defense, including HQ-9 missile launchers in Lahore, suffered significant damage. India maintains a commitment to non-escalation, provided Pakistan respects the ceasefire. Meanwhile, cross-border shelling by Pakistan in Jammu and Kashmir led to 16 civilian casualties. (PC: AP)
