🇮🇳 India vs Terror: The Real Story Behind the Pahalgam Civilian Massacre & Operation Sindhoor
On April 22, 2025, the valley of Pahalgam — a known paradise for Indian tourists — turned into a graveyard.
A group of 26 unarmed civilians, many of them women and children, were brutally executed after being asked their religion. The attackers, heavily armed and trained, spared some Muslim passengers while targeting those who identified as Hindu.
It was a hate-driven, premeditated terror attack.
And it changed the direction of India’s national security forever.
Within 48 hours, the Indian Government launched Operation Sindhoor — a response so strategic, so sharp, and so globally acknowledged that it shifted the way the world sees India in its war against terror.
⚫ The Attack: What Really Happened in Pahalgam
Location: Near Lidder River, on a tourist highway
Date: 22 April 2025
Time: Around 4:15 PM IST
