Operation Sindoor demonstrated India’s restraint and commitment to combating terrorism without escalating tensions.

Pakistan Attacked Srinagar Airbase After India's Operation Sindoor Latest News Today: In the wake of India’s successful ‘Operation Sindoor’ targeting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK), several Pakistani media outlets and social media accounts have been circulating unverified claims of a retaliatory attack on the Srinagar airbase. These reports, which emerged shortly after India’s focused and measured strikes on nine terrorist sites, have been debunked as false by the Jammu and Kashmir Police.

At 2:30 AM IST, a senior Jammu and Kashmir Police official confirmed to an Indian journalist that no such attack had taken place in Jammu and Kashmir, dismissing the Pakistani media’s claims as baseless. “There has been no attack on the Srinagar airbase or any other location in Jammu and Kashmir as falsely reported by Pakistani sources,” the official stated, urging the public to rely on verified information.

Indian authorities have described these claims as a deliberate attempt by Pakistan to distract from the precision and success of Operation Sindoor, which was launched in response to the brutal Pahalgam terrorist attack on April 22, 2025, that claimed the lives of 25 Indian citizens and one Nepali national. The operation, which avoided targeting Pakistani military facilities, demonstrated India’s restraint and commitment to combating terrorism without escalating tensions.

This is not the first instance of Pakistan resorting to misinformation to deflect attention from India’s counter-terrorism operations. Similar tactics were observed following the 2019 Balakot airstrike, when Pakistani media and officials spread false narratives to downplay the impact of India’s strikes on terrorist camps. Analysts suggest that the current claims are part of a pattern of propaganda aimed at misleading the public and covering up Pakistan’s inability to respond effectively to India’s actions.

The Indian government has reiterated its resolve to hold those responsible for terrorist activities accountable, with a detailed briefing on Operation Sindoor scheduled for later today. Meanwhile, the Jammu and Kashmir Police and Indian security forces remain on high alert, ensuring the safety of the region amid heightened tensions.

As misinformation continues to circulate, Indian officials have called on citizens to verify information through credible sources and avoid falling prey to Pakistan’s diversionary tactics. The international community has also been urged to take note of Pakistan’s attempts to distort facts while shielding terrorist elements operating from its soil.
