India's air defense systems effectively countered incoming threats during these operations, revealing vulnerabilities in Pakistan's HQ-9 air defense systems.

Navy Commodore Raghu Nair emphasized that India's responses have been measured and responsible, despite ongoing misinformation from Pakistan.

In addition to military actions, India has closed the Attari-Wagah border and suspended trade with Pakistan, increasing economic pressure on its neighbor amid existing inflation.

The Indian government has also enacted a visa cancellation for all Pakistanis in India and imposed a ban on Pakistani artists, further isolating Pakistan culturally and diplomatically.

India's military actions are supported by non-kinetic strategies, including psychological operations and information dominance, aimed at isolating Pakistan economically and diplomatically.

Commodore Nair warned that any future escalation from Pakistan would provoke a decisive response from India.

On the night of May 9 and 10, 2025, India targeted 11 Pakistani air force bases, marking a historic military action against a nuclear-armed nation.

These combined military and non-military efforts underscore India's commitment to a zero-tolerance policy towards terrorism and its determination to protect national interests.

India has initiated Operation Sindoor, a strategic military initiative aimed at dismantling Pakistan's military capabilities in response to recent provocations from Islamabad.

As part of this operation, the Indian Armed Forces executed precision missile strikes on nine terrorist facilities, targeting groups like Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba, with significant impacts on Pakistan's military infrastructure.

These strikes reportedly caused substantial damage, destroying 20% of Pakistan's Air Force infrastructure and resulting in the deaths of over 50 personnel, including a squadron leader.

This military response was triggered by Pakistan's drone and missile attacks from May 7 to May 9, prompting India to deploy kamikaze drones to neutralize Pakistani air defenses, particularly in Lahore.
