Indian Air and Artillery Operations Target Terrorist Camps in Pakistan During Operation Sindoor

Operation Sindoor, conducted in May last year, involved coordinated air and artillery strikes by Indian forces targeting terrorist camps and fortified positions in Pakistan. The Indian Air Force executed complex night sorties using various aircraft and precision munitions, while the Army carried out its first air mobilisation of a specialised artillery unit equipped with M-777 howitzers and Excalibur precision shells. Both operations emphasized secrecy, precise planning, and high accuracy under hostile conditions, contributing to the neutralisation of critical enemy infrastructure.
