Operation Sindoor and subsequent military developments in India and Pakistan
India's May 2025 operation against terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan's establishment of an Army Rocket Force Command are reported alongside statements on defence systems and strategic reviews.
Operation Sindoor was carried out between May 6 and May 10 2025, according to Carnegie Endowment. The operation was described as India’s military action against terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan in response to the April 2025 terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir that killed twenty‑six civilians.
During the conflict, India employed S‑400 air‑defence systems and blunted Pakistani attacks, Times of India reported. A statement cited by Carnegie Endowment noted that precision strikes create very little collateral damage, hence the cost of war for nations is less.
Following Operation Sindoor, Pakistan established an Army Rocket Force Command, Times of India reported. The new command is intended to bolster conventional strike capabilities and to counter India’s below‑threshold responses.
Both India and Pakistan are re‑evaluating their military strategies and procurement plans, according to Times of India.
