JAIPUR, May 8 -- Terror sanctuaries in Pakistan are no longer safe as India will hit them hard on its own terms, choosing the timing, conditions, and method of action, deputy chief of army staff (strategy) Lieutenant General Rajiv Ghai said on Thursday. "We will hit everything," he said at a joint press briefing by top officials from the three services to mark the first anniversary of Operation Sindoor. Ghai oversaw the operation last year as the army's director general of military operations. He described it as "a defining moment in India's strategic journey." The operation, which began in the early hours of May 7, 2025, was New Delhi's muscular response to the Pakistan-backed Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people. It triggered four days of strikes and counterstrikes with fighter jets, missiles, drones, long-range weapons and heavy artillery before the two sides reached an understanding on stopping all military action on May 10. Ghai said standoff precision strikes were timed to perfection, achieved total surprise, and inflicted maximum damage in each terror hub that the Indian forces hit deep inside Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and heartland Pakistan, signalling that no sanctuary is safe. "I think people on the other side are also wise. So yes some of these camps and launch pads have moved further to 'depth' areas of Pakistan where they feel they will be safer. But no terror sanctuary is safe. We spoke about depths.We will go after everything," Ghai said. Pakistan-sponsored terror groups such as Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Hizbul Mujahideen (HM) began relocating to that country's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) province after Indian forces bombed nine terror camps in Pakistan and PoK and killed at least 100 terrorists in the early hours of May 7....
