It comes after fears of an “all-out war” between the two countries rose after a mass shooting in Kashmir last month.

The Indian armed forces said they had launched “Operation Sindoor” and hit nine sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

They added that they did not target any Pakistani military facilities.
