Operation Sindoor stands as one of India’s most significant military actions against Pakistan. Each day brings fresh reports on Pakistan’s efforts to protect itself during the operation. The latest development reveals satellite images capturing the Pakistan Navy retreating to the Iranian border. According to an India Today report, the satellite images are strong proof. They show that Pakistan had to move its navy ships to another place after India carried out strikes. The pictures show that many Pakistani warships were moved from their main naval bases. Some ships were taken to Karachi’s commercial docks. Others were moved further west, near the Iran border. This retreat was important because it happened at the same time when India was doing precision strikes between May 7 and May 10.
The new proof goes against Pakistan’s earlier claim that it gave a strong reply to India. The images show that Pakistan had to pull back to keep its navy safe. On May 8, one day after India’s strikes, important warships were missing from their regular spots. Three of them were seen at Karachi’s commercial port, and one more was moved somewhere else.
Operation Sindoor
On the night of May 7 and May 8, the Indian armed forces carried out strikes on nine terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir as a response to the Pahalgam attack that killed 26 people. The Army and the Air Force worked together, launching the operation between 1:05 am and 1:30 am, catching Pakistani forces by surprise. In total, 24 precision missiles were fired at key terror hubs like Muridke and Bahawalpur, strongholds of Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed. India later clarified that the strikes were carefully aimed at terrorist camps and avoided Pakistani military bases. It also stressed that the action was limited and not meant to escalate the conflict, but only to dismantle the terror networks behind the Pahalgam attack.
