Operation Sindoor was India’s retaliatory military strikes against terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir in May 2025.

National Security Advisor Ajit Doval has spoken publicly about Operation Sindoor for the first time since India’s military operation against Pakistan on May 7, 2025. Doval has shared his assessment of the operation, its objectives and the message India wanted to send in Discovery channel’s upcoming docu-series, ‘Declassified: Operation Sindoor’.

The documentary, which includes first-hand accounts from India’s senior military and national security leadership, features a rare interview with Doval on the 88-hour response.
