India found cross-border links to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, which left 26 people dead, and launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, destroying nine terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).

India attacked camps of terror groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and Hizbul Mujahideen, and killed more than 100 terrorists.

In retaliation, the Pakistani Army launched drones and missiles at western parts of India, which were successfully intercepted. India then hit selected military targets deep inside Pakistani territory.

After four days of intense cross-border drone and missile strikes, the two countries reached a ceasefire agreement on May 10 and halted military actions with immediate effect.
