What India said about the attack in Pakistan
India exercised its right to self-defence, which was aimed at preventing a pre-emptive terrorist attack and deterring future attacks. These measures were proportionate, de-escalated, balanced and responsible. They were focused only on destroying the terrorist infrastructure and disabling the terrorists who had infiltrated into India. The UN Security Council issued a press statement on the attack in Pehlegaon on 25 April 2025, stating that 'the planners, financiers, sponsors and perpetrators of this heinous terrorist act must be held accountable and brought to justice.' India's latest steps should be seen in this context.
