Operation Sindoor: Pakistan Reacts Angrily, Celebs Criticize India's Mission

Pakistani Reaction on Operation Sindoor: On 22 April, 26 innocent people lost their lives in a heinous terror attack in Pahalgam, South Kashmir. Most of the victims were tourists, who were asked about their religion before being shot. Today on 7 May, the Indian armed forces responded to the Pahalgam terror attack by carrying out surgical strikes on nine terror camps, four in Pakistan and five in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (POK). While on one hand, this attack named 'Operation Sindoor' has been praised by Indians and global citizens, on the other hand, stars of Pakistan's entertainment industry have strongly opposed 'Operation Sindoor'.

I pray for the peace of the departed souls and strength for their loved ones in the days ahead. A respectful request to all: stop fuelling the fire with inflammatory words. It is not worth the lives of innocent people. May better sense prevail. Inshallah. Pakistan Zindabad!"
