Following the Pahalgam terrorist attack, India successfully dismantled nine terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and PoK through Operation Sindoor, targeting the headquarters of Jaish-e-Mohammed and a stronghold of Lashkar-e-Taiba. In this operation, India neutralized over 100 terrorists, highlighting Pakistan's precarious situation. Despite any bravado, the reality is stark for Pakistan, which has seen a significant number of casualties among security forces and terrorists over the past five months due to internal conflicts, terrorist activities, and India's retaliatory actions.

Intelligence reports indicate that since the start of 2025, Pakistan has endured unprecedented losses in recent years, especially in Balochistan and areas adjacent to the LoC. The report notes that in Balochistan alone, there have been over 350 major attacks and approximately 20 ambushes in the past five months, severely affecting Pakistan's security forces.

Challenges Before Operation Sindoor

Prior to Operation Sindoor, 191 civilians in Pakistan fell victim to internal conflicts and terrorist events, while 398 members of police and security forces were casualties—the highest figures in many years, predating the operation.

Impact During and After Operation Sindoor

On the night of May 6-7, Indian forces launched attacks on nine locations in Pakistan and PoK. Subsequently, from May 9-10, precise actions were taken on 11 high-value Pakistani Air Force and military sites, targeting 23 locations along the LoC. Spanning 1,420 kilometers from Malir in Karachi to Kotli in PoK, these operations confirmed the elimination of more than 100 terrorists. Around 20-26 people were injured in Pakistan. Reports mention that during the May 9-10 actions, 13 Pakistani troops were casualties, while 35-40 soldiers were injured along the LoC. Over 35 Pakistani military personnel were wounded during these incidents.

Deteriorating Conditions in Pakistan

These statistics clearly demonstrate that Pakistan is not only facing repercussions for harboring terrorists but is also suffering heavily from India's counter-terrorism measures and military strategies. Operation Sindoor has severely destabilized Pakistan, leading to an increasingly unstable internal situation.
