India had launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 in reply to the terror attack and hit nine terror bases in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir.
India will hit terrorists in Pakistan, Foreign Minister S Jaishankar underlined to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in a phone call on May 1, in the aftermath of the deadly Pahalgam terror attack, sources have told NDTV.
The already fraught ties between India and Pakistan took a big hit when terrorists opened fire at a famed meadow near Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam town, dubbed "mini Switzerland", on April 22 and started firing at tourists milling around eateries, taking pony rides or picnicking. 26 people were killed in the attack. India blamed Pakistan for the attack, a charge denied by Islamabad.
"We will hit the terrorists in Pakistan and there should be no doubt about it," Mr Jaishankar told Mr Rubio, sources in the know told NDTV.
India had launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 in reply to the terror attack and hit nine terror bases in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir.
The targets belonged to Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), and Hizbul Mujahideen, said the government, adding that the focus was on decimating terrorist infrastructure and not Pakistani civilians or military installations.
