Documents released under America’s Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) show that India’s Operation Sindoor, after the Pahalgam attack in April last year, had shaken Pakistan. It said Pakistan pleaded with the United States for help, even offering more investments, special access and critical minerals in exchange.
Pakistani diplomats and defence officials reached out more than 50 times over emails, phone calls and in-person meetings to several US officials and intermediaries and even the US media, amid the Operation.
Operation Sindoor was India’s response to a barbaric Pakistan-sponsored terrorist attack on the tourists at Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir.
On the night of May 6 and 7, India destroyed and severely damaged multiple terror infrastructure sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, including training camps, launch pads, command centres and logistics hubs linked to groups like Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba, notably at locations such as Bahawalpur, Muridke, Muzaffarabad and Kotli.
