India’s 2016 Surgical Strikes: Turning Point in Counterterror Strategy | Defence Dynamics

On September 18, 2016, a terrorist attack by Pakistan-based militants on an Indian Army base in Uri, Kashmir, killed 19 soldiers, prompting India to respond decisively. In the early hours of September 28-29, 2016, the Indian Army conducted highly coordinated "surgical strikes" across the Line of Control (LoC) into Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, targeting and destroying terror launch pads. These operations, carried out by India's elite Special Forces, marked a turning point in India's defence policy, showcasing its resolve to counter cross-border terrorism with precision. The strikes were seen as a response to Pakistan’s long-standing strategy of using terrorism to destabilize India, especially in Jammu and Kashmir. By successfully carrying out the strikes without casualties, India demonstrated its capability and sent a strong message to Pakistan about its commitment to defending its sovereignty. The strikes also called Pakistan’s nuclear deterrence bluff, leaving a lasting impact on the regional security dynamics.
