Srinagar (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], May 7(ANI): Locals across Jammu and Kashmir have expressed strong support for the Indian Armed Forces after they conducted 'Operation Sindoor' against terrorist hideouts at nine locations deep inside Pakistan.
As news of the operation spread, the locals were seen raising slogans such as 'Indian Army Zindabad' and 'Bharat Mata ki Jai'. 
Speaking to ANI, a local said, "We are very happy. We were all waiting for India's reply to Pakistan. This strike has happened with proof, and this time, no one is going to ask for any proof. We are standing with the Army."
Meanwhile, locals from Rajasthan's Barmer also expressed their happiness over Operation Sindoor.
Bhagirath Gosai, a local, asserted that it was essential to teach terrorists a lesson.
"I was extremely happy when I woke up today and got this information. It was important to teach the terrorists a lesson for killing Hindus by asking their religion in Pahalgam," he said.
Another local, Shakoor Khan, said he is extremely happy with the Indian Army's "revenge". Khan stated that he stands with the Indian Army and is proud of their actions.
"I am very happy that we have taken revenge. We stand with the Indian Army. We are ready to fight for India. I feel very proud," he said.
India carried out its deepest strikes inside Pakistan's undisputed territory since 1971, according to CNN, successfully targeting terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir. This marks New Delhi's most significant military action within Pakistani territory in over five decades.
The strikes were carried out to avenge the victims of the Pahalgam terror attack and to eliminate Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) leaders involved in planning and executing terrorist attacks in India.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) has announced that a press briefing on Operation Sindoor will be held on Wednesday at 10:00 AM. Further details regarding the operation are expected to be shared during the briefing. (ANI)
