Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has confirmed 'Operation Sindoor' is ongoing. All parties have backed the mission as the Air Force has been given a free hand to act upon any suspicious activity.

Air Marshal Sanjeev Kapoor (Retired) said that the S-400 missile system has made an enormous difference during the recent tensions with Pakistan.

Tensions have risen between the nuclear-armed neighbors since an attack on Hindu tourists in Indian Kashmir last month.
