National: The Indian Air Force has made it clear that Operation Sindoor is still in effect, even with the recently announced ceasefire between India and Pakistan. In a statement released today, the IAF asserted that all military goals assigned under the operation have been successfully achieved, highlighting the “precision and professionalism” with which these objectives were carried out.
The IAF communicated that the operations undertaken were “deliberate and discreet,” ensuring they were in complete alignment with the nation’s strategic objectives. While the Air Force has confirmed the ongoing status of Operation Sindoor and the completion of its aims, military officials have refrained from disclosing specific details about the conducted operations at this time. They have, however, indicated that a comprehensive briefing will be provided in the future to offer a clearer picture of the activities undertaken.
This announcement from the IAF arrives at a critical juncture, following reports of alleged violations of the newly established ceasefire agreement by Pakistan. These alleged breaches have heightened tensions in the region, prompting a strong response from Indian authorities. India has officially called upon Pakistan to take immediate and effective measures to address these violations, underscoring the need for Pakistan to approach the situation with “seriousness and responsibility” to maintain the integrity of the ceasefire.
In response to the evolving situation and the concerns surrounding the ceasefire violations, Prime Minister Narendra Modi convened an urgent high-level security meeting earlier today. This crucial meeting brought together key figures from the government and the military to conduct a thorough assessment of the current scenario. Among the attendees were Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, National Security Advisor Ajit Doval, Chief of Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan, and the heads of the Army, Navy, and Air Force, signifying the gravity of the situation and the unified approach being adopted by India.
As the situation continues to unfold, the Indian Air Force has issued a direct appeal to the public and media organizations. The IAF has strongly urged all parties to exercise caution and “refrain from speculation and dissemination of unverified information” that could potentially exacerbate the existing tensions or create unnecessary alarm. This plea underscores the sensitive nature of the current environment and the importance of relying on official channels for accurate updates.
