Op Sindoor exposes strategic gaps in foreign, defence policies
THREE days after Operation Sindoor started, India declared ceasefire. The precise extent of damage due to this operation on either side is not known as it is wrapped under the cover of secrecy. There is speculation on the loss of aircraft on the Indian side. What has surfaced is that due to instructions from the top, the Indian Air Force did not neutralise Pakistani radars and anti-aircraft systems before engaging its terrorist centres.
