New Delhi: Israel has extended its support to India’s right to defend itself from terrorism as Indian armed forces carried out ‘Operation Sindoor’ against nine high-value terror targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. In a calculated military strike following the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, the Indian armed forces launched Operation Sindoor late on Tuesday night.
“Israel supports India’s right for self-defence. Terrorists should know there’s no place to hide from their heinous crimes against the innocent,” Reuven Azar, Ambassador of Israel to India, posted on X.
The military operation struck camps and logistical hubs linked to terror groups held responsible for orchestrating the Pahalgam attack, which claimed the lives of 26 innocent civilians in Jammu and Kashmir.
Indian intelligence agencies have linked the assault to Pakistan-based terror groups, with The Resistance Front, a known Lashkar-e-Taiba proxy, claiming responsibility. “A little while ago, the Indian Armed Forces launched ‘Operation Sindoor’, hitting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir from where terrorist attacks against India have been planned and directed,” the army said following the operation.
