NEW DELHI: Indian Air Force on Sunday said that 'Operation Sindoor' against terrorist groups in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir is still ongoing and a detailed briefing will follow in due course.
In a social media post on X, IAF said that it has successfully executed its assigned tasks in the operation which were conducted in a "deliberate and discreet manner."
"The Indian Air Force (IAF) has successfully executed its assigned tasks in Operation Sindoor, with precision and professionalism. Operations were conducted in a deliberate and discreet manner, aligned with National Objectives," IAF said.
"Since the operations are still ongoing, a detailed briefing will be conducted in due course. The IAF urges all to refrain from speculation and dissemination of unverified information," it added.
This comes a day after India and Pakistan agreed to an immediate ceasefire following a sharp escalation in cross-border tensions triggered by the deadly April 22 terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam.
The breakthrough came after what the US President Donald Trump called "intense diplomatic engagement" over the past two days.
However, just a few hours after the ceasefire declaration, violation was witnessed by Pakistan in Srinagar and other border areas.
On May 7, armed forces carried out precision strikes on terrorist hotspots in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir under 'Operation Sindoor'.
Pakistan responded with drone attacks targeting areas in Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan, and Gujarat. These attacks were intercepted by Indian defence systems but raised fears of a broader conflict between the two nuclear-armed neighbours.
