The Indian defence ministry said the strikes - named "Operation Sindoor" - were part of a "commitment" to hold "accountable" those responsible for the 22 April attack in Pahalgam, Indian-administered Kashmir, which left 25 Indians and one Nepali national dead.

But Pakistan, which has denied any involvement in that attack, described the strikes as "unprovoked", with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif saying the "heinous act of aggression will not go unpunished".

Sharif on Wednesday said the Pahalgam attack "wasn't related" to Pakistan, and that his country was "accused for the wrong" reasons.
