These strikes come in the wake of the Pahalgam massacre where 26 innocent civilians were brutally executed in a scenic holiday spot by terrorists from Pakistan about a week ago. Both sides have significantly escalated their military positions after the attack and the world has largely cautioned restraint, whilst a majority of the countries are empathising and standing by India for the loss of innocent civilian lives.
