Operation Sindoor

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, widely recognised for his eloquence in English, left international diplomats awestruck as he fluently lambasted Pakistan—in French—during a high-profile meeting in Moscow.

Vishal Yadav, a Navy clerk, was arrested for leaking classified defence information to a Pakistani handler during Operation Sindoor. He shared sensitive data to repay debts from online gaming, using crypto and bank channels.

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh addressed the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Defence Ministers' Meeting in China's Qingdao, where he delivered a sharp message on terrorism, slamming Pakistan in the wake of April's Pahalgam terror attack.

NSA Ajit Doval urged SCO nations to act decisively against Pakistan-backed terror groups following the Pahalgam attack and India’s launch of Operation Sindoor.

The NIA has arrested two Pahalgam residents for sheltering Pakistani Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists behind April 22 attack that killed 26 people. Evidence includes eyewitness accounts, video footage and technical inputs; further details pending analysis.

Two Kashmiris arrested by NIA not only harboured the three Pahalgam attackers for two days in their 'dhok' (hut) but also tipped them off on the deployment of security personnel in and around the attack site "in return for a few thousand rupees".

The accused, Parvaiz and Bashir Jothar, provided logistical support to three Pakistani Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists. They sheltered the terrorists before the attack, where tourists were targeted based on religious identity.

India’s Operation Sindoor exposed Pakistan’s naval inaction despite an 18% defence budget hike. As India responded to the Pahalgam terror attack, experts questioned Pakistan’s maritime readiness and rising military spending.

China, Pakistan and Bangladesh have launched a trilateral cooperation mechanism to boost economic ties. Indian security experts warn it may evolve into a strategic triangle that threatens India’s dominance and security in the region.

Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar has confirmed that Islamabad requested a ceasefire from New Delhi after India targeted the Nur Khan and other key air bases during Operation Sindoor.
