In response, Pakistan also closed its air routes for Indian ships and instructed Indian diplomats to leave the country. 

India, which has expressed its commitment to accountability in the Pahalgam incident, carried out airstrikes on various locations in Pakistan at 1:05 am on Wednesday. India named it 'Operation Sindoor'. While claiming that terrorists were killed, Pakistan claimed that civilians were killed in India's attack, including women and children. Pakistan ordered its troops to take action against India, saying that India had attacked Pakistan's sovereignty. At least 16 people were killed on the Indian side when the Pakistani army opened fire. Indian military officials claimed that Pakistan had attacked around 400 drones at various locations in India on Thursday evening, but all of them were neutralized. Pakistan claimed that it did not attack the drone.
