Indian Strikes Kill 10 of Jaish Chief Masood Azhar’s Family
In retaliation for a recent terror attack, India launched Operation Sindoor, striking multiple terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir. Ten members of Jaish-e-Mohammed chief Masood Azhar’s family, including his sister and brother-in-law, were killed in the Bahawalpur strikes. The operation targeted terrorist camps, not military installations, with no reported civilian casualties outside of Azhar’s family. While Pakistan claimed the attacks were an “act of war,” India asserted the strikes were a response to cross-border terrorism and warned against further escalation.
